Open, Heaven by Seán Hewitt - review by Nikhil Krishnan

By Sean Hewitt
| Literary Review Verified
Early in Open, Heaven, James, a gay librarian in his mid-thirties, is told something by his departing husband that he immediately acknowledges as true. James may love his husband, but he does not desire him. For James, no lover has ever had the power of Luke, the boy he loved when he was sixteen: ‘Every time I looked into a lover’s eyes … I wanted to see Luke’s eyes, green and urgent, holding me.’ His experience with Luke has set ‘the pattern of all my subsequent longings’.

. Apr. 2025. 224p. ISBN 9780593802847. $28. F COPY ISBN DEBUT Poet Hewitt’s ( All Down Darkness Wide: A Memoir) debut novel begins with an adult James looking back at a seminal teenage year—in a prelude reminiscent of Julian Barnes—and the emotional whirlwind that kicks up after he meets the confident though haunted Luke. Hewitt eschews the traditional coming-out arc and instead builds out the consuming, almost claustrophobic atmosphere accompanying first love.
