Blackout by Sarah Hepola

In this unflinchingly honest and hilarious memoir, a woman discovers that her best life is a sober one.



For Sarah Hepola, drinking felt like freedom; part of her birthright as a twenty-first-century woman. But there was a price-she often blacked out, having no memory of the lost hours. On the outside, her career was flourishing, but inside, her spirit was diminishing. She could no longer avoid the truth-she needed help. 



Blackout is the story of a woman stumbling into a new kind of adventure-sobriety. Sarah Hepola's tale will resonate with anyone who has had to face the reality of addiction and the struggle to put down the bottle. At first it seemed like a sacrifice-but in the end, it was all worth it to get her life back.
 

Sarah Hepola's work has appeared in publications such as the New York Times Magazine, the New Republic, Glamour, Slate, Guardian, and Salon, where she worked as an editor for many years. She's worked as a music critic, travel writer, film critic, sex blogger, beauty columnist, and high school English teacher, among other things. She is based in Dallas.
