The author's young adulthood basically amounts to a how-to primer for addiction. Paranoia and impulsiveness, obsession, and manipulation. Throw in compulsion, false pride, fear and dishonesty, all driven by self-centered thinking. The gateway behavior for all the others. Blessed with a good memory, almost granular for certain events and circumstances, Mike Matson turns his journalist's eye on his own past and the result is an honest, unflinching look at his decades-long struggle with addiction.

Reality in a nutshell
Revisado: 01-29-25
As a 90’s kid, this book made me feel at home as a 20 something in the ‘70s. Matson truly sheds light on personal characteristics that inform, and differentiate between the degree of success in, personal and professional behavior. The detailed introspection makes one ask similar questions of oneself that the main character experiences. The acknowledgments and post-story expressions truly deliver the home run in my opinion… What a success.
