    "We do this because the world we live in is a house on fire and the people we love are burning."
    Sandra Cisneros

    Why are some of us are driven to write so that we can find our home, while others write to escape from home. Join poet, short story writer, novelist, essayist, performer, and artist Sandra Cisneros, with writers Samuel Te Kani, Tayi Tibble, Jane Smiley, Emma Hislop, Anne Enright and Lynn Davidson as they share new pieces of writing on what home means to them. Live musicians weave their stories together while the big cinema screen will illustrate ""home"" with images of our artists' choice.
