Finding Home

A realistic portrayal of the complexities of a romance between two men in 1950s England. The homophobia and class differences were very much front and center, as imprisonment and professional ruin were very much risks the MCs faced if their relationship was discovered. In addition, as a physician and a farmhand, they had no good excuse to be hanging out together, and few settings where they both felt comfortable. Because of those obstacles, the sudden declaration of love for both MCs felt very sudden, as they had barely spent any time together before confessing their feelings.

Sweet but sad (albeit with a happy ending) and dismaying to realize that decriminalization of homosexuality in Britain happened less than 60 years ago.
