| カスタマーレビュー: Great Read!!! (2008-09-21) I've always been fascinated by E. Lynn Harris' fictional work (and maybe a bit frightened since he's been writing about down-low relationships before the term was popular). What becomes of the Broken Hearted was a wonderful read. I was so engrossed in the book that I read the book in two days (I was a bit disappointed as I had nothing else to read after day 2 of my week vacation) Lynn got me emotionally involved in the book and dispelled some of my own prejudices. His writing made me realize that wanting to be loved isn't limited to a sex or sexuality. He also sends the message that facing adversity doesn't define you but is only a small part of you. I'm glad he didn't end his "journey" and allowed the love and support of friends and family to help him navigate through life.
A mediocre life yields a mediocre memoir (2007-09-14) This book isn't terrible. If I could I'd give it 2.5 stars. E Lynn Harris is black, and gay. This fact is stated so many times in the book that it is a wonder the book isn't titled "MY LIFE SUCKED BECAUSE I'M BLACK AND GAY, BUT MOSTLY BECAUSE I'M BLACK!!!! DID I MENTION I'M GAY! !!!!!!" Seriously, all in caps, just like that, that should be the title of this book. Lynn Harris is exactly the type of person I have zero interest in knowing. Nothing is ever his fault. He doesn't work hard, fails at everything, gets a second chance due to being the same race as his boss, or is accepted without proper qualifications because of affirmative action in the 70's. But then... then he starts to succeed. He becomes a salesman, and you know what, he's good at that. Sure he didn't have the qualifications for the job and was initially hired because he was black, but it turns out that he is actually -good- at what he does. So does that success and greatness become a large part of the story No, of course not, outside of work his entire life is a mess and he goes from closet case guy to closet case guy wondering why they treat him so poorly... while these guys still have girlfriends. Nothing is ever Lynn's fault of course. Give me a break. If you want to hear what it's like to be a complete loser, this is the story for you. You'll be fascinated by how self defeating one man can be. The kicker is that at exactly 7 hours and 30 minutes in Lynn nails it down perfectly "...who would be interested in reading a story about a sexually confused black man who basically wasted ever opportunity given to him." Not me. Amazing storu told of someones life (2007-09-06) At some point I felt as if alot of his friends reflected many of his characters which and while after reading you discover they did lend him inspiration.It must have been very difficult to point out his flaws to his readers , and it was done very well at that. Most people prolly wouldnt want to reveal there past so openly to the public but E. Lynn did it and I can respect that.
 Brokenhearted... (2007-04-18) Follow Harris on his journey of revelations about life and love in this well-written, east-to-read memoir. Within the first couple of pages, I burst into laughter, then as the story unfolded, I felt kind of bad for Harris. The abuse he suffered at the hands of his step-father and then the destructive life he led during his adult life makes you wonder how he survived it all, suicide attempts and everything. I think I've read all of E. Lynn's books and this one really shows you from where all of his prior offerings evolve. I'm glad that at the time this was published he had found the love he was searching for. I hope that love continues.
 Beautiful and Strong (2006-12-02) What Becomes of a Broken Heart. In it, E Lynn Harris offers a tough and tender glimpse of the man between the covers of more than a few literary sensations. The raw emotional honesty is heartbreaking at times, yet redeeming at others. Through some of the roughest storms, he blooms, beautiful and strong. | |||||||||||||||||||||
