Synopsis of Shuggie Bain
Ambientada en Glasgow durante la década de 1980, 'Shuggie Bain' narra la conmovedora historia de Hugh 'Shuggie' Bain, un niño dulce y solitario que crece en una ciudad marcada por el declive industrial y la epidemia de drogas. Su madre, Agnes, lucha contra la adicción al alcohol mientras Shuggie busca desesperadamente la normalidad en un entorno hostil. La novela explora temas de pobreza, adicción, sexualidad y el inquebrantable lazo entre madre e hijo en una sociedad en crisis. Ganadora del Premio Booker 2020, esta obra es un retrato épico de una familia de clase trabajadora raramente vista en la ficción contemporánea.
