The thrust of this piece reminds me of Brandon Taylor's debut novel Real Life, which was so raw and cutting I'm still hurting from it. I've been a little afraid to pick up his books since then, if I'm honest. Too much to heal from still. This other piece (different author) unexpectedly cut along some of the same scars. A little more gently, and it treated the wounds after.
