This was Patricia Highsmith's last novel, and was published shortly after her death.
Jakob's bar and restaurant in the Aussersihl Area of Zurich is known as the 'small g' because that is how a bar with a largely but not exclusively gay clientele is marked in the listings magazine. Among the regulars is commercial artist Ricky, still mourning his lover's murder, and Luisa, a seamstress who visits the bar with her boss and landlady Renate. The bar is the site of much pining and unrequited love.
It's quite irritating that my own books are taking me a week or two to read at the moment, but I finished this library book in two days.
