Perhaps all of us yearn for that place where our hearts are formed, that place of childhood that, once exited, remains lost. A journey that runs from an adventurous childhood in West Africa to survival in the strange urban jungles of America is exquisitely portrayed through prose, poetry, art and photography. In this book we walk the paths of home sickness, heart ache, abandonment and loss. Portrayed with tensile strength and the vivid colors of hand spun cotton the author's journey to acceptance and survival draws us in. Above it all, joy shimmers in small, exquisite moments of light. https: //sites.google.com/site/sanghabini/
