About this listen

Sent away to boarding school on his eighth birthday, Mark Stibbe watched his adoptive parents drive down a gravel road, leaving him standing in front of a huge country house with his trunk and his teddy. That night, already confused and frightened, he was given the first of four beatings in his first two weeks. This trauma of abandonment and abuse was to scar Stibbe's life until his 50s, when divorce forced him to deal with his "boarded heart".

In this ground-breaking book, Stibbe argues that there are many thousands of wounded people just like him, men and women who suffer throughout their lives with homesick souls. This often leads to them being driven to succeed in their work while failing to engage emotionally at home.

Home at Last tells a poignant story and offers a unique model of healing. It provides psychological insights, yes, but it also delivers the blueprint for a spiritual homecoming. Arguing that boarding schools are orphanages for the privileged, Stibbe shows how we can only truly find healing in the perfect father's love.

Home At Last is split into two parts. The first part looks the cycle of pain created by the boarding school wound. This involves four deep impacts to the soul: desertion, deprivation, disengagement, and dependency. The second part, the cycle of healing, embraces the four stages of the healing journey: revelation, restoration, reconnection, and recovery. These exactly correspond to the four deep impacts to the soul. They are four steps towards the father's house. They must be experienced if former boarders are to enjoy the long-awaited end to their spiritual winter.
