Introduction

Ellen Cohen's parents had promised to pay for a trip to Poland to visit her grandparents when she graduated from college. In 1939, the time has come. But the news from abroad isn't promising and makes them wary and far from enthused about Ellen's visit to Europe.

Journey and Struggles

Ellen is not deterred. She leaves New York, journeys to Poland, and ultimately struggles to survive the horrors of World War II. Her travels take her across Europe, to the Taiga of Siberia, and Central Asia.

Challenges and Resilience

Ellen is both betrayed and her trust misplaced as her plight grows darker and darker with no hope in sight. It's only because of her will to live that she's able to return to New York. But a surprise awaits, one for which she is completely unprepared.

Story Overview

A coming-of-age story set during one of the most volatile times in history, I'm Home I'm Home narrates Ellen’s story as she suffers the evils of mankind and the horrors of being alone in a strange world where little mercy is found.
