The landlord's identity is unknown, the lawn is growing wild, and old phone books are stacked against the front door, yet amidst this chaos, a pit bull and a duckling are best friends. A family is mended and torn to bits, a schizophrenic old woman finds peace, and a motley young man named Christian makes real change by simply following "the house rules".
Set in a low-income, subsidized house at the end of the block, a group of random characters, all rejects in their own way, find a way to thrive in an unforgiving world. With the landlord rarely seen or heard from, who's keeping an eye? Absent Landlord is a heartwarming tale of how a young man's faith in the right things turns a dilapidated house into a true home.
Told with elegance and a simple grace, Raw Spoon (Ross Boone) has created nothing short of the next great American novel.
