Frank Money is black, broken by the Korean War, in the grip of a mad rage. He must find his young sister Cee, who is seriously ill, in Atlanta, in order to bring her back to the town of their childhood in Georgia - "the worst place in the world". He begins a journey through the segregationist America of the 1950s where all sorts of demons dance. Before finding, perhaps, peace. A refined, violently poetic parable, Home tells with authentic grace the branded memory of a people and the epiphany of a man.
