I Remember Everything

I Remember Everything by Fiona Wilkes  is a literary queer novel that follows one woman’s life from Bristol to 1980s London, in the shadow of the early AIDS epidemic. Shortlisted for the 2024 Hungerford Award, it’s tender, sharp-eyed and powered by the bonds of found family and queer community.

Billie is coming into herself—learning how to live openly, love bravely, and build a chosen family that feels like home. Decades later, she returns to the page to honour the friends who shaped her: Robert, Tolstoy, Eleanor, Sasha, Aggie and Ted, and especially Laura, the person who has always pulled Billie close and complicated everything she thought she knew about need.

Perfect for readers drawn to LGBTQIA+ fiction, 1980s London settings, and stories balancing queer joy with grief and remembrance.

Add it to your shelves and let Billie’s city, friendships and love stay with you.
