Why do we travel the world to discover where home really is? Even if we find it in the place we started from, is it ever really the same? In Buckled Into the sky, Adele Graf routes our search for home through ancestors in their own country and family who settled abroad.
She lives in Ottawa.. math for couples is her first book of poetry, though more than half these poems have been published in Canadian journals including The Antigonish Review, CV2, The Dalhousie Review, Room and Vallum .
We\'d left home, had even ignored our "house with its blue shutters," because, as these vivid and tender poems assure us, "it will always be there." About author(s): Adele Graf grew up outside New York City and immigrated to Canada in 1968.
Yet it\'s only after travel that we\'re drawn to "zigzag back" to our "pillared front door" -- whether that\'s our current home, our childhood home, our mind\'s home, our home in the world -- or all of these at once.
