A Home at the End of the World
Set against the 1960s Cleveland backdrop and later bustling New York City, *A Home at the End of the World* follows the lifelong, unbreakable bond between Bobby Morrow and Jonathan Glover. Scarred by childhood trauma—Bobby’s brother’s tragic accidental death and Jonathan’s suffocating, fractured family—the two boys find refuge in each other, forging a friendship that blurs conventional lines. As they mature, they relocate to New York, where they meet sharp, world-weary Clare, and together the trio navigates love, uncertainty, and the endless search for belonging. Eventually, they leave the city’s chaos behind to build an unconventional family in a quiet Woodstock-area home, opening a small café and welcoming a daughter, Rebecca. When Jonathan’s former lover Erich arrives terminally ill, the group confronts mortality, grief, and the true meaning of home: not a perfect structure, but the messy, loyal connections we choose to nurture through life’s joys and sorrows.
