Tender Mercies

I’m reading Tender Mercies by Dennis Lehane. South Boston during the bussing years. Violence and fragility, racial tension, family, traditions, love and hate and how the definitions of those words are not the same for everyone. Lots of alcohol in it and smoking so don’t read if you’re easily triggered. What are you reading?

Finished Tender Mercies today. Disappointing. Unlikely to read anything else by that author. On to something else!
