Peters writes beautifully on the meaning of authenticity and the need to belong. -- Booklist

At a moment when the American dream of home is in jeopardy, comes Ann Peters's utterly engaging and singular memoir. Telling the stories of the houses she has inhabited, the landscapes, writers and people who have given her life meaning, she reminds us the search for home is also a quest for the soul's refuge, and that an account of the places of one's life can be a source of revelation. --Honor Moore, author of The Bishop's Daughter

Here is an autobiography told through buildings and books, and the characters that inhabit both are vividly rendered and entirely memorable. --Christopher Bakken, author of Honey, Olives, Octopus
