Product Description
When two quiet men form a tentative connection neither knows where it might lead. M has inherited his family's ironmongery business and B is younger by eleven years and can see no future in the place where he has grown up, but when M offers him a job and lodgings, he accepts. As the two men work side by side in the shop, they also begin a life together in their one shared room above - the kind of life they never imagined possible and that risks everything if their public performance were to slip. Unfolding in South Wales over three years during the decade of Section 28 and the age of consent debate and against the backdrop of the HIV and AIDS crisis, moral judgement and growing prejudices, this is a tender and resonant love story, and a powerful debut.
