I have nowhere to go, but I'm not lost.
On the streets of San Francisco, Johnson-once a child battered by abuse-drifts through city corners and forgotten spaces, carrying a heavy but invisible past. When he crosses paths with a Turkish immigrant family on Turk Street, their lives begin to mirror and entangle, exposing the quiet ways people lose themselves-and sometimes find each other.
Home-less is a deeply reflective and poetic novel that weaves real-world hardship with inner journeys across the city's legendary islands-Alcatraz, Treasure Island, Angel Island-each holding pieces of Johnson's fractured truth.
For readers of literary fiction who are drawn to stories of identity, displacement, and survival of the soul, this quietly powerful novel is a reminder that homeless is not just a place-it's a state of being.
