A review by pikkumarja
Nuori Mungo by Douglas Stuart

dark emotional sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character

4.5

As a stand-alone, this is a great book but as a part of the literature and queer books I find it sad that gay men are always characters in sad, hopeless stories (this was not totally hopeless but mainly hopeless). The story made me sad and angry. I added tons of content warnings in this review and I think that tells you something.

The writing was dark, detailed and disgusting - loved it! Finnish translation was amazing too!
