Southern Missouri Ozarks
Vision to Action Publishing announces the
release of Back to the Homeplace, the
debut novel of William Leverne Smith, a resident of Hollister, MO.
Hollister,
MO - Spring 2010 - Back to the Homeplace, the
debut novel of William Leverne Smith, is now available on Amazon.com and
elsewhere. The novel is set on a farm and in a nearby fictional community
located in the southern Missouri Ozark hills and near a fictional western
branch of the Current River. The story revolves around a family dilemma
following the death of their matriarch and the unusual will she left to insure
the continuity of the farm, which has been in her family for over 150 years,
intact.
The
year is 1987. The varied background and viewpoints of the adult children coming
back to the Homeplace ignite controversy and expose long kept secrets as each
family member searches for his or her share of the family legacy. While the
older family members stake their claims on land and fortunes, the younger ones
search for love and acceptance. Subplots involve AIDS Awareness in 1987 issues
and a support group for domestic violence incidents.
At
the heart of this family life story is how we do or do not effectively
communicate among family members - parents with children, among children and
grandchildren and that we must each face the consequences of our individual
actions. What happens when they come back to the Homeplace?
