Description

Taken from the pages of Canadian House & Home magazine, these Notes from Home are the musings of twenty leading Canadian writers on the places they have called home. Whether it's a stately city Victorian, charming country cottage, tired farmhouse or dreary apartment, the common thread of "home" sets the scene for many of life's most complex moments: moves, celebrations, marriages, divorces, the isolation of working from home, gatherings of friends--if those walls could only talk. In NOTES FROM HOME, they do.
