Homeland

Confessions and Views

The concept of “Homeland” lies somewhere between nostalgia and contemporaneity, a spectrum that makes any conclusive definition impossible. The dictionary does not exist that could supply a succinct explanation of this oft misused word. There are, however, approximations, subjective interpretations, sensual experiences that, taken together, reveal a shining Kaleidoscope of confessions. Famous names from politics, culture and society reveal their own personal thoughts on the subject. Critical illustrators from Europe have presented their points of view with artistic bravado and clever visual ideas. This has created a remarkable and pleasurable book, a new way of experiencing “Homeland”.
