The Homeless Man is a work of Contemporary Realistic Fiction that follows Arthur, a former history teacher who has slipped through the cracks of society into a life on the streets. Eschewing the typical tropes of tragedy, the narrative focuses on the tactile, gritty details of survival—the "heat-stealing" nature of concrete, the insulation of cardboard, and the politics of public spaces.
