Because of the title, I thought this book would be like one of O’Henry’s short stories. Instead, surprisingly, it has the same desperation of Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun. But don’t get me wrong though, they speak of quite different themes. Miller is truly a genius.
Moderate: Suicide attempt, Death, Death of parent, Infidelity, Mental illness, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , and Suicide
