How does one summarize a life? Could one truly cut it all down to actions done, or words said? Zachary Lawson narrates a few months of his life with complete honesty. From a shattered past, to the creation of new memories written on napkins in the smoking section at Denny's, he enlightens the reader to the realities of a life lived in a generation quickly destroying itself. Zachary Lawson isn't the protagonist, he isn't a hero, he's just a man trying to get there. This book won't warm hearts, but it just might open a generation's eyes to its alcoholism induced genocide. Desperation may be contagious, but it isn't the end.
