Description

Drinking: A Love Story by Caroline Knapp is a candid and revealing memoir about her twenty-year struggle with alcoholism. The author's journey began at fourteen, when she first tried alcohol, and continued through her teenage years, college days, and successful career as an editor and columnist. Despite her outward success, Knapp was secretly drinking herself into oblivion. This book offers a harrowing chronicle of Knapp's love affair with alcohol, laying bare the secrecy, family myths, and destructive relationships that accompany it. It is a story of passion, heartbreak, betrayal, and desire, as well as a triumph over the pain and deception that mark an alcoholic life.
