a memoir of the author's high school years that tell the story of a young 80's romance. Its an absolutely wonderful read and a tear jerker at times. This is the first book I've read by Philippe Besson, but it won't be the last
Moderate: Sexual content, Homophobia, Death, Death of parent, Classism, and Bullying
