Home: Thoughts on Belonging

By Raven Mardirosian

If it's true that we are the sum of our parts, then what happens if a few pieces are missing?
"Home: Thoughts on Belonging" is the final memoir in Raven's story of becoming a healer ("The Reluctant Tarot Reader: Adventures in the Gypsy Trade" and "Just Another Crazy Cat Lady Story"). She reveals an upbringing in a strict, fundamentalist household and makes the difficult decision to leave the church once she comes out as a lesbian -- but struggles for years with the unanswered questions: Who is my mother? My father? Who am I?
This human need to belong does not cease with age or accomplishment, so Raven seeks out her beginnings in the faces of lovers, over 20 homes in two decades and traveling thousands of miles. She meets her great love, Taurus -- and learns what it means to walk away from a soulmate until she can come to terms with her own history. Wildly humorous and wise, Home: Thoughts on Belonging is the story of a woman who doesn't understand strength until she embraces her story and, in the telling, finds her freedom.
