Leonard and Hungry Paul is a quietly radical, deeply humane, and disarmingly funny novel. It is about choosing kindness in a world that prizes noise. Ronan Hession writes with extraordinary gentleness. He invites us into the lives of two men. Their decency becomes an act of quiet resistance.
The novel does not chase drama. Its power lies in small moments. These include a game of backgammon, a walk through familiar streets, and an unshowy loyalty to others. It asks what it might mean to live well without spectacle.
A perfect CardiffRead opener: generous, reflective, and deceptively profound.
