Southernmost: Beautiful and heartbreaking

I just finished Southernmost, the latest book by American author Silas House. It would be an understatement to say I was moved by it. During the last few pages, I had to go into another room so no one would see me cry.

Southernmost by Silas House

The writing is beautiful and the story is heartbreaking. It tackles the intersection of spirituality and sexuality. I was very moved by the main character's evolution and by his desperate attempts to hold on to his child.
