The Heart is a House: Selected Poems by Emily J. Cooper (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578473734)

How do you define home? What small miracles have you witnessed that made you feel alive? What dreams, nightmares, and memories fill your mind? A collection of poetry which is all at once whimsical and dark, The Heart is a House is an introspective journey across our shared human experience. The eight chapters deal with broad themes from Cooper's life from age thirteen to thirty-one, covering imagined fables, the psyche, family life, nature, architecture, love, and loss.
