From rising literary star Gene Kwak comes a fresh, satirical novel about masculinity and tenderness, fatherhood and motherhood, set in the world of semiprofessional wrestling.This pile driver of a novel is original, deeply funny, and moving.New York Times bestselling author Sam LipsyteAfter seven years on the semipro wrestling circuit, Ricky Twohatchet, aka Richard Powell, needs one last match before he gets called up to the big leagues. Unlike some wrestlers who only play the stereotype, Ricky believes he comes by his persona honestlyhes half white and half Native Americaneven if hes never met his father. But the night of the match in Omaha, Nebraska, something askew in their intricate choreography sets him on a course for disaster. He finishes with a neck injury that leaves him in a restrictive brace and a video already going viral: him spewing profanities at his expartner, Johnny America. Injury aside, hes out of the league.Without a routine or identity, Ricky spirals downward, finally setting off to learn about his father, and what he finds will explode everything he knows about who he isas a man, a friend, a son, a partner, and a wrestler. Go Home, Ricky! is a sometimeswitty, sometimesheartwrenching, but always gripping look into the complexities of identity.
