In his fourth book of poems, Jim Daniels visits the sites of domestic faith-Catholic schools, sex and marriage, childbirth-in an attempt to witness a world believing in. A sense of search unites these problems, whether they take place on the cement slabs of a 1950s Detroit suburb or on the hillside cometary of an Italian village. In their search for hope, grace, and decency in the small dramas of an individual life, the poems of Blessing the House became larger, more overtly political.
