The Gay Book Club

In our debut episode, we dive headfirst into The Heart’s Invisible Furies by John Boyne—a novel that manages to be both heartbreakingly tragic and laugh-out-loud funny (sometimes in the same sentence). We unpack the life of Cyril Avery, the world's most reluctant Irishman, and talk found families, gay identity, and whether or not this book emotionally wrecked us (spoiler: it did). Grab a tissue and a drink—you’re going to need both.
