Notes

  • Dedication: For Ann, who sees me through.
  • Epigraph: Do you understand the sadness of gepgraphy? Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient.
  • Epigraph: So we are caught stumbling in between, longing for home. Only in fairy tales, or given freakish luck, does the wind rise suddenly and set you down where everything is safe and loved and in its place. The mind does not expect it. But the heart, the heart - the heart keeps looking for itself. It knows and does not know where it belongs. Jan Zwicky 'Transparence' Songs for Relinquishing the Earth.
  • Epigraph: Home makes possible the possession of the world. Don McKay 'Baler Twine' Vis a Vis.
