A light and tender novel for teens about first love and discovering your sexuality.

Rain and Thunder, Håkan Linquist’s new novel for teens, is a lovestory between two soon-to-be 17 year old boys, Rein and Oscar. It’s about the amazing, but also scary, feeling of falling completely head over heels in love with someone, and about discovering and exploring sensuality and sexuality.

Rein and Oscar meet in Tallinn by chance, and this leads to great changes in their lives. It is a meeting that transports Oscar from childhood into an almost adult place. Rain and Thunder is a beautiful and contemplative book about being allowed to be with the one you want, and about being the one you want to be.
