This final, essential chapter in Rex Ogle's memoir trilogy recounts being forced from his home and living on
the streets after his 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 gayand 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 hungerfor food, for love, and
for a place to call homecompleting the trilogy of memoirs that began with the award-winning Free Lunch.
