About This Book
A Real Simple Best Book of the Year
A deeply moving story of an epic home renovation in the Pacific Northwest—from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Scent Keeper
In this mesmerizing memoir-in-essays, Erica Bauermeister renovates a trash-filled house in eccentric Port Townsend, Washington, and in the process takes readers on a journey to discover the ways our spaces subliminally affect us.
A personal, accessible, and literary exploration of the psychology of architecture, as well as a loving tribute to the connections we forge with the homes we care for and live in, this book is designed for anyone who's ever fallen head over heels for a house. It is also a story of a marriage, of family, and of the kind of roots that settle deep into your heart.
Discover what happens when a house has its own lessons to teach in this moving and insightful memoir that ultimately shows us how to make our own homes (and lives) better.
" . . . for anyone who has wondered where home is and how to find it, fix it, love it, and leave it for later as well." —Laurie Frankel, New York Times–bestselling author of This Is How It Always Is
