A Sort of Homecoming

Several artistic works are entitled "A Sort of Homecoming." Among them are:

  • A Sort of Homecoming (song)
  • A Sort of Homecoming (album)

The phrase was coined by Paul Celan to refer to poetry.

Famous quotes containing the word sort:

    There is a sort of homely truth and naturalness in some books which is very rare to find, and yet looks cheap enough. There may be nothing lofty in the sentiment, or fine in the expression, but it is careless country talk. Homeliness is almost as great a merit in a book as in a house, if the reader would abide there. It is next to beauty, and a very high art. Some have this merit only.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
