Unabridged Audiobook
Loved the narrator. He did a great job and emphasised the important parts appropriately. However, I can’t help but think that this book is too much of a “b*tch fest” about how society has been wrong one homosexual man. Bullying, prejudice and discrimination also exist for many other kinds of people, not just homosexuals, and certainly not just within the working class. The author dedicated less than half a chapter at the end talking about how he’d change and look at things differently going forward. But I think he might need to just go through the challenges “life” presents to him, and become stronger through the experience. The message from this book is very strong, but mostly about how society has wronged the author. There are thousands of other stories about the struggles of growing up that are more tragic and concerning than this one. Read this if you’d like to learn about one gay man’s experience growing up in the UK.
