Description
Michael W. Clune's memoir, White Out, is a candid account of his addiction and recovery. The author's story takes readers inside the world of heroin addiction, where the lines between reality and memory are blurred. With dark humor and crystalline prose, Clune recounts his precarious double life, oscillating between the streets of Baltimore and the college classroom.
As Clune approaches rock bottom, his account becomes increasingly raw and unflinching. He recounts his experiences in detox, treatment, and recovery, offering a rigorous investigation into the disease and its cure. This tenth anniversary edition includes a new preface by the author, providing a fresh perspective on his journey.
White Out is more than a memoir; it is a nuanced exploration of the complexities of addiction and recovery. Clune's story is a testament to the human spirit's capacity for resilience and hope.
