John of John: A Novel
by Douglas Stuart
Douglas Stuart's John of John is a Hebridean coming-of-age novel about a young gay man who returns to his father's croft and finds that the silence he grew up in has a cost for everyone, not just him. Fans of literary fiction built on family duty and buried truth will find this one hard to shake.
