Ambientada en Glasgow durante la década de 1980, esta novela cuenta la historia de Agnes Bain, una mujer que lucha contra la adicción al alcohol mientras cría a sus hijos en medio de la pobreza y el declive social. Su hijo menor, Shuggie, se niega a abandonarla y lucha por salvarla de sí misma, ofreciendo un retrato conmovedor de amor incondicional y resistencia en tiempos difíciles. Ganadora del Premio Booker 2020, es una obra que explora los límites del amor y la devastación de la adicción.
