These interconnected short stories navigate love, loss, and the search for meaning in the wake of tragedy. Clare's husband Richard is battling cancer in St. Boniface Hospital, and when his cellphone is stolen, she embarks on a restless search, tracking its signal through the city--trying to grasp onto something tangible as everything familiar slips away. Tracing the threads of Clare and Richard's relationship, from the exhilaration of their first meeting to the raw ache of his absence, Seeing You Home is an intimate portrait of devotion, grief, and the impossible task of finding a way forward.
