You Can''t Go Home Again

is a novel by Thomas Wolfe published posthumously in 1940. The novel tells the story of George Webber, a fledgling author, who writes a book that makes frequent references to his home town of Libya Hill. The book is a national success but the residents of the town, unhappy with what they view as Webber''s distorted depiction of them, send the author menacing letters and death threats. (Wikipedia)
