addiction memoir alcoholism AIDS
Our Take
Burroughs writes about alcoholism and recovery with the black humour of someone who has no other coping mechanism left. The rehab scenes are darkly funny; the relapse is not. His best friend is dying of AIDS while he is trying to stay sober, and the intersection of those two griefs is unbearable.
