One phone call. That's all it took to change Stephanie Wittels Wachs's life forever.... Her younger brother Harris, a star in the comedy world known for his work on shows like Parks and Recreation, had died of a heroin overdose. How do you make sense of such a tragic end to a life of so much hilarious brilliance? In beautiful, unsentimental, and surprisingly funny prose, Stephanie Wittels Wachs alternates between her brother's struggle with addiction, which she learned about three days before her wedding, and the first year after his death, in all its emotional devastation.

Wow. This is the truest story I’ve read of the baffling heartbreak that is addiction robbing a close family of a genius...

I lost my sister to suicide. Although that is different than this painful loss, I haven’t read/listened to any other book that made me feel so understood. The multitude of feelings you feel when you see a sibling struggle with their demons (addiction or depression or otherwise) and then ultimately losing them is hard for anyone to understand and this book helped me feel less alone. Thank you Stephanie, for sharing your story and helping the general population understand addiction and have more empathy.
