Hopkins opens the door for us into his world with a bang and a dragon from the first page. He walks us through small intimacies of daily life...He creates beauty with unusual imagery and also out of bittersweet and painful moments of the quotidian. Hopkins wields rhyme in unusual ways that surprise and delight, making the musicality of this book a read-aloud treasure...he is a poet for our times, and Take Your Journeys Home a book you must add to your collection.
