addiction recovery book leslie jamison 2
March 26, 2018 – On paper, Leslie Jamison had the kind of life every young author dreams of: Ivy League education, Iowa Writers’ Workshop, a Yaddo retreat and a published novel — all before age 30. But more than anything else, she wanted to drink. She is 34 now and has been sober for more than six years. Her new book, “The Recovering: Intoxication and Its Aftermath” (out April 3, Little, Brown), is her candid attempt to grapple with not only her own addictions, but those of both the famous and the non-famous. AM NewYork spoke with the Brooklynite about the book and how sobriety changed her creativity.
