Making Love

by Tom Inglis

I have just finished this book. I have never cried so much reading. So beautifully written by Tom Inglis, an Irish author, with his honest and moving memoir that blends past and present, telling the difficult topic of grief, whilst also exploring love and sex in Catholic Ireland in the 60s and 70s, along with time spent in America. I highly recommend but be ready for the emotion you will feel from these pages.
