Publisher's Synopsis
"Recognizing Him means having a home; denying Him means being homeless." Home represents shelter, a roof, peace and happiness. Our true home is located in our heart, the house of God. My novel Homeless is a work of multicultural adult fiction set in San Francisco. Each chapter represents a "scene" in a human's life. The book flows along two parallel streams that are intertwined with each other: the first is the real world, the second is the inner world. The inner world includes philosophical metaphors taking place on the islands of San Francisco: Alcatraz, Treasure Island, and Angel Island. They represent the places the human soul visits internally based on a person's daily experiences. Following an abusive childhood, Johnson is homeless, living on the streets of San Francisco. His life intersects with a Turkish immigrant family, living in "Turk Street" and facing inter-cultural and inter-religious challenges in a new country.
