commented on Isaac by Curtis Garner

Curtis Garner: Isaac (AudiobookFormat, 2024, Oldcastle Books, Limited)

The all-consuming first relationship comes to an end and only then do I realise just how rare it is for authors to describe the inner worlds of what that all too often does to younger gay men. The workings of Isaac's self esteem are laid out, and not over dramatised - he doesn't even know why he hovers around an eating disorder - it's a book full of bittersweet moments and Isaac is a really really likeable protagonist, even when he's not being likeable.
