_The Only House on the Left_ is a collection of poetry and prose arranged in five sections that can be read as a memoir in verse. The first section contains poems of childhood memories and family portraits; the second section is a longer, metaphorical coming-of-age piece focusing on initiation moments; the third section details relationship poems; the fourth section focuses on poems of fatherhood; and the final section contains poems dealing with the grief that results from the loss of a parent. Cycling through this chronology of life experience, the book ultimately ends on a note of hope and the kind of redemption that can only be found deep in the roots of home and family.
