Book Description
The Poetry Of Home is a collection of quotations about rooms, both real and fictional, culled from literature over the years by Interior Designer Charlotte Moss. As its title implies, this anthology celebrates the richness of rooms made out of words - quite literally, the poetry of home, the capacity of language to invoke the memory and dream, the texture and scent, the ease or anticipation, all of the intimate pleasures and passions of domestic life.
