Publisher's Synopsis
Fresh from its shortlisting on the Polari Prize for LGBTQ writing in the UK, Charles Lambert's bold take on the queer coming-of-age story is finally available in the US. Lambert's powerful writing style, called 'expertly crafted' by Owen King, is honed to perfection in this rich, emotive novel about coming to terms with death in a strained family dynamic. A novel that captures both the essence of the queer experience and something universally human, Prodigal will delight fans of Garth Greenwell and Ann Patchett.
