Preface: I could live here
Introduction: Imprint
A house down south
Lighting seven fireplaces
Who lives here?
Green world
Camellia
Magnolia
Gardenia
Sun standing still
Secret spaces
My Southern accent
The ghost who cooks
Yearning for sun
Toward the Apennines, toward the lake
Dinner / Cena
Time difference
Risking happiness
Pure gold clasps
Cucina povera / The poor kitchen
Household shrine
Exile 2020
Southern exposure
The house on South Lee Street
The monumental cakes of Frankye Davis Mayes
Frankye's cookbooks
And again to the Golden Isles
Momentary homes
Why not stay
Blue apron
Fragments
A place to hide
Water maze
Friends at home
Home thoughts: a litany
The taste of memory
Rhymes with home
Changing the changes
Memento vivere / Remember to live
Why stay?
Annals of stone
"I left a basket of figs by your gate"
Envoi: Architect.
