WHAT BECOMES OF THE BROKENHEARTED

This memoir invites us into the intimate world of bestselling author E. Lynn Harris. Taking us from attempted suicide to recovery from clinical depression, Harris's own warm, halting voice engagingly guides us along the path of his extraordinary life. Harris's objective tone prevents his story from becoming maudlin or trite. This gay black man's story is a triumph for any American, but it is especially so for those whose lives have been made difficult by others due to their race, sexual preference, or disability. P.R.
