About the Book

Follow Grant through recovery from alcoholism amidst the twists and turns of side-splitting comedy in a rural old folks home in Arkansas. Meet a host of unforgettable, quirky characters watch Grant as he is pulled into the undertow of substance abuse, and restored to sanity by consequence of recovery. Witness the rediscovery the meaning of life in this memoir entwined with comedy, drama and the affirmation of love and recovery. Following substance abuse's aftermath of destruction and despair, the central struggle for the main character is to fill the void left by the cessation of alcohol. The tension for resolution is driven by the alcohol related death of Grant's best friend and the nagging question, if no addiction, then what Hilarity abounds as Grant seeks these answers from a cast of misfits who are his institutionalized patients and colleagues. The novel concludes with the answer, that the vaccum, the hole created by the removal of an abused substance, must be filled with "life." This is an excellent book of inspiration and consequence for anyone going though recovery, who knows someone going through recovery, or anyone who enjoys a rollicking adventure of comedy, tragedy, love and life's lessons learned.
