Description
John of John
John of John is a powerful new novel by Douglas Stuart, the Booker Prize-winning and Sunday Times bestselling author of Shuggie Bain and Young Mungo. Set against the rugged landscape of the Scottish island of Harris, the novel explores family, identity, art, belonging, masculinity, and the complicated bonds between parents and children.After running out of money and struggling to find direction following art school, John-Calum Macleod returns by ferry to the island of Harris. The landscape and the croft where he grew up remain largely unchanged, but Cal himself is no longer the same person. Back in his childhood home, Cal is pulled between the two powerful influences of his youth, beginning with his father, John.
As he reconnects with the people and places that shaped him, he is forced to confront his past and reconsider the complicated relationships that continue to define his identity. Set against the windswept beauty and harsh realities of island life, John of John is an intimate and emotionally intense story about returning home and discovering that the places we leave behind can continue to hold enormous power over us.
