In A Delicate Child by James Halat We follow Nino as he tries to come to terms with the terrible truth about his grandfather.

With the help of his uncle Sal, a drunk homebody, and a young Paolo, a recent immigrant from Italy who brings with him an eerie connection to Nino's grandfather, Nino struggles to make his way through the labyrinth of memories that pour from his head, not all of them seemingly his own.

A Delicate Child looks into the unknown connections that shape an individual and the triggers that bring those connections into the light, in the end exposing the hidden relationships that, for better or worse, exist just beneath the surface of accepted realities.

This was a book about a man from Italy that tells stories of his past to a young boy that becomes obsessed with these stories. Disclaimer: There is a lot of sex in this book, so not for readers that are squeamish about that!
