Synopsis

This final, essential chapter in Rex Ogle's memoir trilogy recounts being forced from his home and living on the streets after his conservative father discovered he was gay

When Rex was outed the summer after he graduated high school, his father gave him a choice: he could stay at home, find a girlfriend and attend church twice a week, or he could be gay―and leave. Rex left, driving toward the only other gay man he knew and a toxic relationship that would ultimately leave him homeless and desperate on the streets of New Orleans.

Here, Rex tells the story of his coming out and his father’s rejection of his identity, navigating abuse and survival on the streets. Road Home is a devastating and incandescent reflection on Rex’s hunger―for food, for love and for a place to call home―completing the trilogy of memoirs that began with the award-winning Free Lunch.
