The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.
Maya Angelou
I first read the Odyssey when I was about 16. Loving books and having never really felt at home in the world, the story resonated with me at many levels. At home. Home. It's got to be one of the most powerful words. It encompasses a certain type of love and feeling safe and then much more, a place, however small, to rest your head. The book is the hero's journey home. My character is working out this dilemma in her own way.
