From ebooks.com
Price Dh90
Irving crafts such beautiful sentences that you’ll want to reread them out loud just so you can hear them, and his latest 400+ page novel tells the story of Billy, who struggles with his identity, which means society struggles to accept him. Starting from Billy’s formative years in the 60s, and following through to the end of his days, the book makes you realise life is never black and white.
