“No Place Like Home” by Hesba Stretton is a poignant Victorian-era novella that delves into themes of family, hardship, and redemption. The story follows Ruth Medway, a devoted Christian mother, who, after her eight children have left home, finds solace in her youngest son, Ishmael. An innocent adventure leads Ishmael and a companion to a cave, where they roast wild eggs—a seemingly simple act that sets off a chain of events profoundly impacting their lives.
