Why read it?
1 author picked Adam as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A beautifully written coming-of-age tale. And another book I have read many times. The descriptions are so sensuous and evocative of a hot summer in the French countryside that it’s easy to lose yourself in them. This story isn’t a straightforward romance and reading about deeply flawed but very human characters are ultimately what gives me comfort with this one.
From Suki's list on queer comfort reads for stressful times.
