This fascinating parable tells the story of Michael Thomas, a seemingly ordinary man who was born in Minnesota and who is now working in Los Angeles. He represents the American icon of normalcy - and discontent. After having an accident that leaves him near death, Michael is visited by a wise angel who asks what it is that Michael really wants from life. Michael replies that he really wants to go... HOME!
In order to get to his final destination, Michael must first go through a series of adventures and trials in an astounding land filled with angelic beings, wise teachers, and even sinister entities. Michael's quest is an emotional, humorous, awe-inspiring one, which he could scarcely have imagined.
