If These Walls Could Talk by Elaine Greene

This engaging collection of essays captures all the different feelings associated with home, from the nostalgia evoked by Grandmother's farmhouse, the joy of that first apartment, the recovery from the loss of a beloved home. Author Edna O'Brien leads us through her adored childhood home in County Clare. Christopher Buckley's "Foggy Bottom Blues" amusingly recounts his mishap-ridden relocation to Washington, D.C. From Patrick Dunne's reminiscences of junkyard picking in New Orleans to Sally Ryder Brady's story of watching her family's house bulldozed to the ground, these essays remind us that not only is there no place like home, but that no two houses are alike.
