Quotes by Ben Fergusson (?)

“Train carriages, outdoor shoes, appointed mealtimes, lessons, spoons, bathing, days of the week, buttons; it was all so laughably meaningless.”
― Ben Fergusson, The Other Hoffmann Sister

“Like all of my friends, I’d seen the ubiquitous soft-core pornography on late-night German television that our English relatives found scandalous. Police interviews, maths lessons, doctors’ visits turning unexpectedly sexual and ending with grunting dry humping. But I’d never seen an erect penis that wasn’t my own, I’d never seen a pale pink circumcision scar, I’d never seen, piece by piece, how a man’s body joins up, how the landscape of skin and hair changes in texture and tone, from the folds of the lips to the folds of the testicles, the tufts of black on his toes to the perfect triangle of hair above his buttocks on his otherwise hairless back.”
― Ben Fergusson, An Honest Man
