Poems from an ever-wandering poet, Janine Pommy Vega. American Book Review wrote, "She is changed by her journey through the world, and she changes the world through her words."

Here too are tender lyrics about family, lovers, and friends; celebrations of the natural and domestic worlds of upstate New York; and remarkably vivid letters home from spiritual sojourns through Italy, Germany, and the former Yugoslavia. "Vega's poems reflect a deeply felt and aching knowledge. They 'go' (as Kerouac said) their own patient, unadorned, and dignified way," wrote Publishers Weekly of her previous collection, Mad Dogs of Trieste .
