From FIRST THOUGHTS -
"This
memoir—written in a series of linked essays—was
born
from that spirit, to examine the broad notion of home,
how
it morphs and eludes, and the search for it—from family
roots
to personal discoveries—growing up, moving on, returning
to,
and embracing a singular sliver of the universe.
Like
many, I have investigated near and far, from my boyhood
home’s
big side porch to destinations around the world and
down
the street, stumbling and tripping, hoping to uncover
pieces
of myself in some way through work, leisure, and love,
taking
fragments of my experiences with me to build something—
a
home, a place under the stars. And it is the consequence
of
all those stars that is the eternal search. There is no
straight
path. There is no map."
