Another book I had high expectations for, but those fell slightly short. I am enamored with the idea of *home* myself personally, so I guess the selected authors seeing the concept of home with different eyes than I were a let down. I have great nostalgia for my concept of home, and theirs were often melancholy, sad, or even tragic. Try it yourself, it is overall a quick read being a series of short tales.
