A Room Above a Shop, by Anthony Shapland
Short, powerful book about two men and their furtive relationship. The writing is so beautiful - a uniquely sparse, dense and quiet prose that felt cinematic and completely captivating. Cannot recommend enough. #aroomaboveashop #anthonyshapland #grantabooks

then you get some descriptions of the rooms the first character has made, and then book ends. And this actually sounds rather horrible and a criticism but it's not. It's utterly glorious.
