Product details

Shuggie Bain has stolen my heart. Bernadine Evaristo

Shuggie is different, delicate, imaginative, and feminine, all within the bleakness and poverty of a working-class family in 1980s Glasgow. His heart belongs to his mother, Agnes, who understands him and fiercely counters the gray world with her beauty, yet increasingly seeks solace in alcohol. Saving her is Shuggie's mission, a task he fulfills with absolute devotion year after year, until he ultimately must fail. A great novel about the misery of poverty and the persistence of love, deeply sad yet filled with poignant tenderness.

A social study that gets under your skin.
