This memoir offers an intimate look at the generational impact of alcoholism within a New York family. By documenting his journey through foster care and family shelters, the author illustrates the systemic nature of addiction and trauma. It is both a tragic exploration of a broken childhood and an inspiring blueprint for survival and recovery

"I loved this book. No, I LOVED this book!! It is a tale of sorrowful abuse and then rising from the ashes of a destroyed childhood. It is a true story. So many horrible events the author and his many siblings endured in their childhood. Disturbing, yes, but I couldn’t put this book down. It should be required reading for junior high, senior high and anyone else who feels they’ve been given a rough life. EXCELLENT!"- javajanet
