ADDICT
A MEMOIR
Milton Schorr began to use drugs at 13 years old. By 17 he was a heroin addict, and by twenty-four he was clean.
Addict traces the years in between and the two decades that followed, exploring addiction, recovery, identity, and the real process of building a life after collapse.
Honest, unflinching, and deeply human, Addict became an Exclusive Books Biography Bestseller, and continues to grow as it becomes a staple in recovery institutions and communities across the world.
