Så en dag träffar han James och nya känslor kommer fram som han vet att folk inte skulle gilla, de två tonåringarna drömmer att de kunde fly tillsammans men det krockar ständigt med skräcken för att bli upptäckta.
Så en dag skickar Mungos mamma iväg honom på en fisketur med två mindre trevliga män behöver han samla all sin inre styrka för att hitta ett sätt att ta sig tillbaka till säkerheten och till en plats där han och James kan ha en framtid tillsammans.
En gripande och rå skildring av en liten bit tid i några personers liv under senare 1980-talet. Det finns så mycket känsla i berättelsen på gott och ont, om hur man ska vara och inte vara. Att det kan kräva stort mod att bryta sig fri från allt och gå sin egna väg. Var helt förberedd på ett annat slut än det öppna slutet som först förvånande mig och sedan gjorde mig så glad efter att jag lyssnade på det igen. Det är det perfekta slutet, som lämnar Mungos och James fortsatta framtid upp till läsarens egna fantasi och det är så tillfredsställande.

It's simply a masterpiece. I've not read anything like this before and I will probably never read anything like it again. It's the best worst time I've ever had. Now I'm off to have a good cry 😢
