Greg FleetRecensioni

Here's a first. A book written as therapy. Aussie comedian and actor, Greg Fleet, is a heroin addict. He wrote this book in an apparently successful attempt to finally get clean. The book is roughly chronological, frequently laugh-out-loud funny, desperately raw, unflinchingly honest and littered (right word) with bad stories embellished with bad language. It's a treatise on drugs and the world of comedy, containing all you need to know about how to score, shoot up, lie with self-deluding impunity, and be a general all-around destroyer of anything good, wholesome and worthy in your life and relationships. That's not my judgement, that's how Fleet tells it. A litany of whip-assing that seems to go on rather too long, but Fleet wants us to understand that this has been his reality. I get it. I pray he remains vigilant.
