Résumé
After two decades of helping clients battle addictions, Michael Pond, a successful therapist, succumbs to one himself. He loses his practice, his home and his family to alcoholism. Pond’s harrowing two-year journey to sobriety takes stops in abandoned sheds, dumpsters,… ditches, emergency wards, intensive care, and finally, prison. His account crackles with raw energy and black humour as he plunges readers into a world few will ever have the misfortune to experience. c2014.
