Tender - Tapa blanda

D. Clifford Hill’s first book Tender is a poetic, brutally self honest and colorfully descriptive noir memoir of living through PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) in the Tenderloin of San Francisco. After surviving a workplace shooting he just wants to feel something, anything at all; he wants to rise above the flat of medications, to move beyond depression, to be free of the constant anxiety the gunman is at hand. The men in his life ravage the carnage of his vulnerability; repeatedly he is left numbed and alone until a homeless man, Darnell, steps into his life and love, in its trembling aimless dysfunction, binds their lives together.
