Dust cover is unmarked, brown cloth boards, and bright gilt lettering on the spine of the book. Home follows the Boughton family in the town of Gilead, Iowa. It centers on Glory Boughton, a woman in her late thirties who returns home to care for her aging father, Reverend Robert Boughton. Not long after, her troubled brother, Jack Boughton, also returns after a long absence.
