Home by George Saunders is the story of a vet returning from the war, who discovers it's not that easy to come home. Of "Home", George Saunders says, "If you send four hundred thousand people into a shitstorm, don't expect everybody to come back smelling like roses. Some of them are going to come back damaged. To show ourselves to be an honorable culture, we have to step up and deal with them with all the generosity and love we can summon, or shame on us."

Directed by Sheila Balter. The cast includes Word for Word ensemble members Brian Rivera, Patricia Silver, Bob Ernst, JoAnne Winter and Norman Gee.
