A young boy, Duffy, watches helplessly as his father drinks himself to death, prompting him to vow that he will never, ever be like his father. But when Duffy is a young man, he has become exactly like his father and desperately struggles to find a way to a life worth living.

This gripping memoir is an intimate journey from the perils of trying to survive in an insanely dysfunctional home to becoming a drunken, drug-addled tornado blowing through the lives of others, while laying waste to his own. Duffy finally lands in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), where life gets really crazy as he faces two choices: wind up like his failed father or become his own man.

There are 107 million alcoholics in the world and countless family members and friends who love them and fear for them. This book, told with compassion and humor, offers help and encouragement.
