Synopsis

House of Wandering engages narratives of identity at the intersection of history and culture. It is haunted by the idea of home that exists only within the space of memory and imagination and reflects the divided identities of an immigrant self. This book is a tribute to the poets' origins in northeastern Poland, exploring both the magic of the storytelling and the scars of trauma; it is also a contemplation of nostalgia, loss, and hope that relate to the idea of home - this shifting, ghostly concept of belonging that the speaker must face in the new world.
