Very beautifully written, philosophical and sentimental story about what lust and a soul connection between an unlikely (and LGBT+) pair feels like. Especially the first half is quite erotic, sometimes vulgarly so, but in my opinion it doesn't overshadow the other parts and this book is worth reading even if you prefer to skip/skim over those scenes.
