A Little Life - Hanya Yanagihara

Post by Louis Walles »

Title: A Little Life

Author: Hanya Yanagihara

Genres: fiction/lgbt

Short summary of the story: The book follows four friends after their graduation from the Massachusetts college. It tells a story about them coming into realisation about their lives and their friendships and lovers.

Good points/bad points: The only bad point of the book is that it is very difficult to actually read this book because of the language used and the length of the book which can demotivate the reader from reading it. The good point is that the book is very interesting and I liked the concept. I also love that it focuses on LGBT mostly because all friends in the book are gay.
