Abstract
Home is like a leaf on a tree: other people, other homes, are the other leaves. They live beneath the same sky, share the same memories, survive the same storms. After twenty-five years on a New Brunswick farm, Beth Powning came to understand the land she calls home. Now, readers may once again experience the spirit of home in nature in this new edition of her seminal book. Time has made the subtle messages beyond her door become clearer, if not less mysterious: the glorious rawness of winter storms, the effortless dominance of oak trees, the distinctive poetry of night, the universes found within a humble garden.
