An intoxicatingly strange cult novel about queer desire and wildness, as a man unwittingly disrupts his life by opening his home to a peculiar troll.

'A strange and erotic tale... The troll comes to life after hours, unleashing glittering desires' Guardian

After a night of drinking and romantic failure, young photographer Angel returns home to find a group of teenagers taunting a wounded troll. Moved by its helplessness, he takes the furry little beast into his home, blissfully unaware he has just welcomed chaos into his life.

With its eyes full of nocturnal wildfire and powerful aphrodisiac scent, the troll soon casts its odd spell on Angel, who finds himself crossing boundaries he never imagined he would. Intoxicatingly imaginative and strange, Troll: A Love Story is an unforgettable story of the dark, hairy underbelly of human desire.
