The impact of alcoholism on a New York family is described through the eyes of a young boy. The boy's journey through a series of traumatic experiences, family shelters, and foster homes illustrates the insidious mechanism of addiction and how it propagates from one generation to the next. His struggle to survive is a story of brokenness, heartache, and hope.

"One of the best memoirs I've ever read." - Amy M

"I loved this book. No, I LOVED this book!! It is a tale of sorrowful abuse and then rising from the ashes of a destroyed childhood. It is a true story. So many horrible events the author and his many siblings endured in their childhood. Disturbing, yes, but I couldn’t put this book down. It should be required reading for junior high, senior high and anyone else who feels they’ve been given a rough life. EXCELLENT!"- javajanet
