"In approximately forty essays, Homecomings: A Writer's Memior tells the ongoing story of former Indiana poet laureate Norbert Krapf's experiences and development as a writer of poetry and prose that began after he moved from northern Indiana to the New York area in 1970 and his eventual return to his native state, beginning with Section I: Indiana Origins. Involved in the story of the writer he became are the editing and annotating of pioneer German journals and letters from his native Dubois County in southern Indiana, the translating of legends set in his ancestral Franconia, in northern Bavaria, and translating early poems by Rainer Maria Rilke, all part of Section II: German Roots. Eventually, collaborating with photographers and musicians, jazz pianist and composer Monika Herzig, and bluesman Gordon Bonham, become part of his work as a writer, as did confronting the abuse in his past, in both poetry and prose as seen in Section III: Indiana Return"--
