Perspective

A queer coming-of-age story about love, illusion, and the art of seeing yourself clearly

Jonah Sinclair is starting over.

He’s left behind the stage lights of a performative childhood and arrived at university to study art, armed with a sketchbook, a sharp sense of humour, and the quiet hope that nobody here will ask too many questions. But his new flatmates are impossible to ignore: fierce, fractured, and full of feelings, they come with enough baggage to bury an emotional support animal.

And then there’s Rowan.

Steady, gentle, and far too observant.

As Jonah begins to draw the people around him, his sketchbook starts to shift. The drawings move. They change. They reveal not who his housemates are, but who he’s afraid they might be. When the line between imagination and reality begins to blur, Jonah must face the terrifying truth: the magic isn’t in the sketchbook. It’s in what he’s been hiding.

Tender, furious, and disarmingly funny, Perspective is a queer coming-of-age story about art, fear, found family, and the impossible intimacy of being truly seen.
