Richard Sanger’s new collection contains voices reporting from a number of far-flung states, both emotional and geographic. The book’s true theme, though, is what one calls home, and the idea that home itself can be a calling. Framed by an unusual sequence of four encounters with a loved one who is both different and the same, Calling Home digs through family history and faraway winters with all the colloquial verve and formal skill that has made Sanger one of the most compelling—and enjoyable—of Canada’s new poets.
