Tom Rob Smith
Danny and Luis have been a couple for decades. Piece by piece, they’ve built a life together. They’ve created a home.
The only thing they didn't have was a marriage. When they met, it was illegal.
But the law finally changes, and Danny decides to propose - on a Scottish hilltop, to the love of his life.
Luis loves Danny, but does he love marriage?
And, as the past begins to catch up to them both, everything they have worked for begins to fall apart.
Can their love survive the ultimate test? And is a yes still worth fighting for after twenty years together?
Tender, romantic, and beautifully written, Twenty Years Together is a love story for the ages, by the multi-million copy bestselling author of Child 44.
Critic reviews
‘Queer love is not conventional – it was never afforded that luxury. Holding hands on the sidewalk is a bolder move than it should be. Finding our other half, building a family and making a safe haven is what we strive for, but it is often a struggle. Twenty Years Together is an enthralling novel of missed connections and found companionship. It’s about where we look for love and chosen families. Tom Rob Smith has delivered a classic love story for the modern era, where love is the greatest hope and equality the greatest struggle’ JOHN-PAUL SARNI, writer and producer
‘A gorgeous, funny and quietly revolutionary love story. Twenty Years Together captures what it means to grow up and grow older together; not in spite of being gay, but beautifully, wholly because of it. Tom Rob Smith reminds us that queer love can be messy and miraculous all at once’ GORDON GREENBERG, Broadway and West End director and writer
‘The warmth, the sharpness, the intelligence of every character . . . We get to witness conversations between bright, sensitive people, which is what life really is – we choose friends we can talk to. And this book is like a friend you love talking to, crying with, laughing with. The dialogue is direct, innocent, sharp – always reflective – cutting to the big questions: What is love? What is happiness? What is friendship? What is marriage? Twenty Years Together is a beautiful, sensitive, self-reflective novel that makes me proud and humbled to have read it’ JUAN PABLO DI PACE
'As we now witness recently acquired LGBTQ freedoms being challenged, Tom Rob Smith delivers this keenly observed love story, which follows Danny and Luis as they navigate twenty years together. From 1992, to a more embracing 2012 we observe the burdens they’ve each carried from less accepting times and the continued impact of these adversities. This brilliantly affecting and often funny love story, calls to mind the seminal bildungsroman A Boy’s Own Story. It is a joy to read’ MICHAEL KAPLAN, BAFTA winning costume designer, Blade Runner, Star Wars, Fight Club
‘Twenty Years Together is expansive yet intimate, expertly crafted, charming, touching and constantly surprising; a reminder of where the LGBTQ+ community has been, where we are, and where we must remain’ ALEXIS GREGORY, playwright (Riot Act, FutureQueer, Smoke)
