Carlin, David

When David ends up in the hospital after an impulsive suicide attempt, his life comes in short flashes from past events to present. Unfolding in dark strokes of lyricism, much like the marks he puts on his arms, the morose life he's been living is exposed. But there might be one person who can pull him back from the edge and give him reason to hold on.

Carlin, David is a dramatic young adult short story about one young man who can't handle the weight of existence any longer. Will he find hope before it's too late?
