Nic Sheff was drunk for the first time at age 11. In the years that followed, he would regularly smoke pot, do cocaine and ecstasy, and develop addictions to crystal meth and heroin. Even so, he felt like he would always be able to quit and put his life together whenever he needed to. It took a violent relapse one summer in California to convince him otherwise.

In writing that is raw and honest, Nic spares no detail in telling us the compelling, heartbreaking, and true story of his relapse and the road to recovery. As we watch Nic plunge the mental and physical depths of drug addiction, he paints a picture of a person at odds with his past, with his family, with his substances, and with himself.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Garcia delivers a strong and commanding reading that perfectly expresses the rawness of Sheff's most personal recollections….Endlessly memorable." (AudioFile Magazine)

"Garcia becomes Sheff, offering a gritty and raw performance that demonstrates just how dire the circumstances surrounding Sheff's existence really were." (Publishers Weekly)

Written in first person present tense, the story picks you up and places you behind Nic’s eyes. In his head, you see the thought processes unfold as he justified his actions to himself, and the confusion of trying to do the right thing. Nic is so very relatable. Utterly moving and tragic, the book gave me insight into my own struggles with self love and being a 20-something searching for acceptance.

Excellently performed, the characters came to life.

For anyone who has ever struggled with loving themselves

I’ve learned a lot from Nic Sheff's searingly open and raw account, as a practicing surgeon I have treated many patients with complications from injecting drugs but this book has opened my eyes to how deeply people can get caught in their dependency and to some of the precipitating and perpetuating factors including deep feelings of inadequacy or even self-loathing and I hope that I can be more empathetic to such patients in future based on my better understanding. I was moved by this book.

Moving and educational

Wonderfully narrated, a real showpiece. Well done! Great insight for those who love an addict, but get yourself a 12-step programme to help save yourself, learn about the disease, about your issues and to recover enough to be there to support the addict if s/he manages to find their way. I wish I could have done more.

A detailed insight. Chilling.
