The Milkman's on His Way is a young adult gay classic. It tells the story of Ewan McCrae, a gay teenager living in Bude, Cornwall. Ewan knows that in his claustrophobic hometown he’ll never fully be himself. Perhaps in a bustling and far-away city like London there is a whole new world waiting…
The Milkman''s on His Way was first published in 1982 and is one of the first queer young adult novels to appear in the UK.
