Full of longing and melancholy, the stories in What You Get at Home find comfort and understanding in the unlikeliest of places. In ?The Rocking Chair,? a piece of furniture simultaneously divides a family and heals old wounds. In a small pool of light and her favourite book the narrator in the title story finds a sense of belonging and purpose. In ?Chopsticks,? a piano in a personal care home reminds a woman of the sense of wonder and admiration she had for her father as a child. With the power of memory the characters that inhabit What You Get at Home find the strength to carry on when life is at its most challenging.
