Book Description:

Janis Stout tackles the memoir with a new and inventive approach - she organizes her memories around the houses she's lived in. Houses, she claims, are metaphors for the structures of our lives, and Stout's houses twine their way through this memoir, along with reflections on work and retirement, marriages good and bad, and quietness for engaging in the important last work of life.
