Set against the backdrop of 1960s Kansas, 'Home' unfolds concurrently with the events of the Pulitzer Prize-winning 'Gilead'. This independent yet intertwined narrative focuses on Glory Boughton, who returns to Gilead at the age of thirty-eight to tend to her ailing father, Reverend Robert Boughton. Amidst her caretaking duties, Glory's troubled brother Jack appears, seeking sanctuary after two decades marked by absence, upheaval, and addiction. Previously known for his rebellious antics and troubled relationship with their father, Jack embarks on a quest for redemption and understanding. As he weaves painfully through old familial ties, he forms a profound connection with Glory, confronting his checkered past and uncertain future. 'Home' offers a poignant exploration of family dynamics, the complexities of faith, and the bittersweet interplay between homecoming and forgiveness.
