intimacy and vulnerability between two young artists learning to be soft
with each other in a world that hardens against Black people.” —Yaa
Gyasi, author of Homegoing
a crowded London pub, two young people meet. Both are Black British,
both won scholarships to private schools where they struggled to belong,
both are now artists—he a photographer, she a dancer—and both are
trying to make their mark in a world that by turns celebrates and
rejects them. Tentatively, tenderly, they fall in love. But two people
who seem destined to be together can still be torn apart by fear and
violence, and over the course of a year they find their relationship
tested by forces beyond their control.
at once an achingly beautiful love story and a potent insight into race
and masculinity that asks what it means to be a person in a world that
sees you only as a Black body; to be vulnerable when you are only
respected for strength; to find safety in love, only to lose it. With
gorgeous, soulful intensity, and blistering emotional intelligence,
Caleb Azumah Nelson gives a profoundly sensitive portrait of romantic
love in all its feverish waves and comforting beauty.
