Twice a year, Manoa presents diverse new fiction, poetry, essays, reviews, and art from America, Asia, and the Pacific. In this latest edition, over fifty authors contribute to our understanding of place and homeland.

Homeland also includes a symposium featuring eleven writers from around the world meditating on home and other intimate dwellings; photographs by Piliamo'o of the restoration of a Hawaiian cultural response; an interview by Gavan Daws with a man whose search for the meaning of life led him into a correspondence with some of the world's most famous men and women; American poetry and fiction; and much more.
