'A moving exploration of family migration class queerness and belonging... beautifully
rendered' JESSICA ANDREWS 'A deeply observant perceptive writer' JOANNA CANNON 'Evocative
layered and emotionally resonant... deserves to be on your reading list' GLAMOUR 'Masterful...
It will stay with you long after you finish it' JJ BOLA 'Love was a tightrope between freedom
and control. He didn't know how others seemed to walk it with ease'
------------------------------------------------------------------ Elom can't make sense of
love. It's like a language he can't speak though he's heard the words before. He wants to feel
understood - by his well-meaning yet misapprehending family his self-assured partner Ben and
his boisterous friends - but he never knows the right thing to say. How can you know yourself
in a world that's constantly changing? Set across Ghana and Scotland this is an intimate
portrait of one man's search for belonging a family's attempt to love and the choices that
make a life. ------------------------------------------------------------------ GLOWING READER
