Every week, we present a book from our collection that we find particulary interesting, exciting, educational, or otherwise worth reading. This week:
Maurizio Onano: "In Gucci zu Netto" (Jaja Verlag, 2024)
Fabian is in his mid-20s, a florist, gay, single, and doesn’t think much of himself. Feeling lost, he stumbles from one humiliating one-night stand to the next, while his friends seem to have successfully made the transition to adulthood, and the babies and weddings around him only intensify his inner pressure.
With uninhibited dialogue and uncensored visual power, Maurizio Onano offers even the most scene-unfamiliar straight person a small glimpse into the queer world of the 21st century.
