Small Joys by Elvin James Mensah

Small Joys is breathtaking and heartrending, by turns hilarious and devastating and surprising and wild.

Mensah's prose makes the intangible deft and tremendous — from the balm of friendship, to the beauty of queerness, and the all-encompassing elixir of community. Tender, thrilling, and honest; Small Joys is a beam of light.' Bryan Washington, author of Memorial 'A beautiful, moving story of love, male intimacy, chosen family and finding self worth.' Mendez, author of Rainbow Milk ‘I adored Small Joys – a sweet, moving, funny, strikingly open story.
