I found this compelling, devastating, and nuanced. Rosen avoids easy answers and solutions and it's clear that he loves/loved his childhood friend Michael Laudor. It sort of seems like he comes to the conclusion that Michael should have been forcibly medicated/hospitalized - or he hints toward that - and I don't really know how to feel about it. I can certainly understand his perspective.
It's complicated but I appreciated learning about it.
