Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man and Ninety Days by Bill Clegg
What makes one of the most gifted, charismatic and successful young literary agents in New York fall into full-blown crack-addiction: a collapse that would cost him his business, his home, many of his friends and - very nearly - his life?
Destined to become a cult classic of writing on drug addiction* Irvine Welsh [Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man] *
It's an honest and wonderfully crafted book by a man as intoxicated by language as he was by crack – A.L. Kennedy. * Guardian [Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man] *
I loved Bill Clegg's Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man because of its unflinching honesty... There is a passage in it in that is among the most tender and desperate I have ever read. It is also extremely funny. * Observer [Portrait of an Addict as a Young Man] *
