Arresting, confessional ... The story of his life as addict is so harrowing that it is often painfully hard to read ... The book is anything but a failure ... It’s remarkable—beautifully written and wonderfully insightful. Doubt and faith are twin themes that inform the captivating story and, without doubt, will also captivate readers of this extraordinary memoir.
Exquisite and unflinching ... Combined with his stunning prose, his clever use of biblical metaphors...makes his story of salvation all the more affecting. In a sea of addiction memoirs, this stands out.
