I think the problem might be that you are sending a raw object as a parameter. Try doing '/home?page=' + JSON.stringify(value) and console.log(JSON.parse(req.query.page[0].name)).

You may also need to encode the param like so: ecodeURI(JSON.stringify(value)) and decode with decodeURI, like so: decodeURI(req.query.page[0].name)
