"construed...home just seems a provisional claim, a designation you make upon a place, not one it makes on you.
A certain set of buildings, a glimpsed, smudged window-view across a schoolyard, a musty aroma snifffed behind a garage when you were a child, all of which come crowding in upon your latter-day senses.
Those are pungent things and vivid, even consoling"
From: an urge for going (Harpers, Feb 1992)
