Inhaltsangabe

In Slowly, decorum demands suicide. But, for some, the possibility of life is all too compelling. In a culture of conformity, it may not be up to the individual to decide. Hurts Given and Received with its provocative ideas, pungent poetic language, and savage wit build a thought-provoking allegory of the artist’s relationship with society.
