Mesmeric and tender, this is the tale of one man’s search for love and affection.

A man returns to his hometown to clear out the flat of his recently de¬ceased mother. While there, he cannot resist visiting his former lover. As the storm rages in the night outside, he finds in the man’s embrace some kind of quiet; some kind of home.

As we are drawn into the narrator’s past, we see how a childhood marked by abuse and a life lived on the edges can shape someone – and what respite and beauty can be found in love and trust. Unsentimental yet aching with longing and vulnerability, Angelo Tijssens’ The Edges is a deeply humane and moving debut.

‘A deeply affecting meditation on the deprivation of love. Like a meeting of Édouard Louis and Garth Greenwell. ’ - Michael Amherst
