Praise from James Brown, author of This River and The Los Angeles Diaries

“This is an extremely moving and powerful memoir. Elhajj doesn’t linger on the ugliness of addiction itself but focuses on the solution, and the hard road that as addicts and alcoholics we must all travel if we choose to turn our lives around. Elhajj is a fine writer and brave soul with a tremendous heart. His story is one of staggering loss and seemingly insurmountable struggles, but in the end he leaves us, victorious, with the
greatest message of all, one of hope and redemption.”
