by Isaac Amend (Author)
"Hurt Capital" explores the life of the narrator, Isaac, as he prowls the streets of New Delhi as a child and learns how to drink in Moscow, Russia as a teenager. Written in the format of a first person letter to his mother, "Hurt Capital" speaks of Isaac's ravaging bipolar disorder. "Hurt Capital", indeed, denotes a place of hurt: one that is a "curated kind of hell...a dungeon in Berlin where hipsters get raped and benzoed to death...swords on the skin, razor blades to the wrist, blades on the back of a shoulder." Isaac feels that he lives in Hurt Capital because he is bipolar and also a transgender man.
