A college kid endowed with hypnotic powers keeps telling himself there's got to be more waiting for him after graduation than family in the neighborhood and an okay catering job. Maybe he just needs to get his story straight.

Kenny McLuher is far from his native Wisconsin, in his last year at the University of Virginia, majoring in history with no idea what he's going to do with it. At his catering job, Kenny's old Southern folktales keep putting his co-workers to sleep, and in Kenny's dreams President Abraham Lincoln sure seems to be trying to tell him something.

Maybe the pieces will come back together after graduation when Kenny returns to Madison, where he can ask the big question: What is home, anyway?
