Sometimes, a single connection can change the shape of a summer.
From late-night calls and long drives to London, to handwritten letters, quiet museums and sunflowers that meant more than words. This is the story of four dates that became much more than four dates.
Espresso is a true story of faith, hope, distance, family and a love that arrived unexpectedly. It follows Guapo through the joy of meeting someone special, the pain of saying goodbye and the warmth of remembering a lovely summer while life continues around him.
Emanuel Bashota
FROM THE COVER OF ESPRESSO
