Homecoming King

By Israel Allen

Homecoming King is a novel about gaining the world but losing the soul in the course of 31 days in Asheville, North Carolina. Cal Taylor is a failed actor and successful free-loader, house-sitting for his wealthy uncle and dating two women--the abuse survivor Jordan Cross and the abusive Rachel Marquez. Cal's two best friends, Paul and Adam, try to steer him through the messes he creates, but only when his Uncle Charlie commits suicide does Cal really begin to grow up. The story makes itself at home in the culture soup of its Asheville setting, addressing relationships, religion, and responsibility in the New South.
