Tall, dark, and exceedingly handsome, how can any woman not have her eyes feast on a man who not only has those qualities but also carries himself very confidently? Mustafa had all those external qualities and much more. When our eyes locked that evening, I felt like a teenager. My heart was racing, I felt giddy, I truly felt special, and in a crazy way, it felt like I hit the jackpot. I knew he was significantly younger than me, but I did not care. I needed something exhilarating and wild in my life, and he seemed to fulfill that desire. I had no idea that the wild I had in mind was the total opposite of the wild I ended up with.

A raw, unflinching, convention-defying memoir of substance abuse, depression, and guilt In his genre-bending memoir, Rick Moody, author of The Ice Storm, delves into not only his own tormenting struggle with depression and alcoholism but also the pathos inherent in American society. Beginning with his childhood and widening his gaze to his ancestral past, Moody elegantly details the events that led him to admit himself to a psychiatric hospital. Seeking explanations for his inner demons, Moody traces his lineage back to Joseph “Handkerchief” Moody. In early-eighteenth-century Maine, Joseph accidentally killed his childhood friend and wore a handkerchief over his face for the rest of his life as a self-imposed punishment. His story stirs within Moody a drive to understand his own failings through a study of American violence from colonial times to the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School. Remarkably broad in scope and full of Moody’s witticisms and brilliantly crafted prose, The Black Veil is an extraordinary exploration of both personal and cultural shame that transcends the expectations of a memoir. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Rick Moody including rare images from the author’s personal collection.
