"A child is very ill; there is a hospital. . . . The subject is as basic as a bowl and a nail, wood and a house, and a house on fire." —Fanny Howe, from the introduction
House and Fire is a mother's love song to her stricken young son, written over the years of his hospitalizations for an acute immune disorder.

This unforgettable debut was selected by Fanny Howe.
From "House and Fire":
for thirty-three years
I didn't make anything
with my body
and thenyour brother
and thenhe sickened
watching him sleephooked to tubes
an empty envelopeinside me
fills each dawnwith one long love letter
by night
it's mostly apology
