A Father's harrowing journey through his son's addiction
By David Sheff
A New York Times bestseller, now a major motion picture starring Steve Carell and Timothée Chalamet.
Before Nic became addicted to crystal meth, he was a charming boy—joyous and funny, a varsity athlete and honor student adored by his two younger sisters. But as David Sheff soon discovered, meth is a ruthless disease that can strip a person of everything, leaving behind only a shell of his former self.
In this gripping memoir, Sheff takes us on a harrowing journey through addiction, from Nic's initial experimentation to his descent into full-blown addiction. We witness the lies, the manipulation, the desperation, and the shattered lives that addiction leaves in its wake.
But Sheff also shows us the strength of love and the power of redemption. Despite the pain and heartbreak, he never gives up on Nic, and he ultimately helps him find his way back to sobriety.
A Father's Journey Through His Son's Addiction is a powerful and moving story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. It is a must-read for anyone who has been touched by addiction, and it is a testament to the power of love and hope.
