Publisher's summary

On the Sunday of his 18th birthday, in 1975, Colin takes a walk on Box Hill, a biker hang-out. There he accidentally trips over Ray, a biker napping under a tree - and that’s where it all starts. 

This transgressive, darkly affecting love story between men, winner of the 2019 Fitzcarraldo Editions Novel Prize, is a stunning novel of desire and domination by one of Britain’s most accomplished writers.

Critic reviews

"Adam Mars-Jones has never needed to write at great length to convince readers of his talent. Mars-Jones’ latest work is a sliver of a novel that provides ample evidence of his prowess. Box Hill is not a novel for the prudish, but it is a masterclass in authorial control. Despite its diminutive length, it is rich with detail and complexity, and has plenty to demonstrate Mars-Jones’ well-deserved place on any list of our best." (Alex Nurnberg, Sunday Times)

"The biggest small book of the year." (Guardian)

30 pages missing

30 whole pages from the original book are missing (p. 30-60)! I can’t believe this. I demand my money back. Who botched this recording?
