Learn More About HOMESICK:

A home you’ve never known. A language you no longer speak. A history you seek to uncover. A childhood you can never return to.

Homesick explores the many ways we can long for a place, a people, or a time that is distant, lost, inherited, or imagined. We’re drawn to stories of nostalgia, heritage, displacement, belonging, and the histories we carry with us—across borders, across generations, and through the stories we tell ourselves; the space between what we remember and what we inherit; between the home we knew and the home we imagine. We’re interested in what happens when a place becomes a memory, a story becomes a history, or a history becomes something we carry with us.

Table Salt Press does not accept AI-generated or AI-assisted work.

About Table Salt Press:

A TABLE IS NEVER JUST A TABLE.

We believe the things that matter most are rarely kept to ourselves. They are passed around, remembered, retold, and carried with us.

Table Salt Press exists to preserve exactly that—the irreplaceable feeling of sharing what matters around the kitchen table.
