Publisher's Note
At the age of 44--at the height of his success--Richard Lewis found himself on a gurney in an emergency room, suffering from a lethal mix of alcohol and drugs. The same dysfunctions that had been the basis for his successful stage persona and had generated so much wonderful material for comedy had turned on him. In this blistering memoir, Lewis tells how he got to that point, how he got on the road to recovery, and how he copes with being Richard Lewis, sober, on a daily basis, in this very funny, profoundly honest, inspiring but unsentimental book. He shares candid and revealing anecdotes about love, sex, fame, family, drinking therapy, eating disorders, and the serious business of comedy.

Industry Reviews
"Although he's been sober for almost seven years, Lewis writes with an addict's jumpy restlessness, staggering from hurt to hurt, from tensely jokey confession to confession, from twitchy spiritual discovery to discovery. His literary style is unsteady an stained with bar glass rings of cliche....His narrative can't walk a straight line, and he veers from incident to incident, sloshing and spilling time."
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum (01/12/2001)
