My Young Life A Memoir By Frederic Tuten

"Fierce, absorbing, and ultimately inspiring." —ELIZABETH KOLBERT
"One of the finest scientific memoirs ever written." —DAVID W. BROWN

"The third panel in Brown's masterwork triptych on addiction from youth to sixty, Apology to the Young Addict also accomplishes at last a staggeringly rare mercy—on the ghosts of memory, the ravages of disease, the brutal hypocrisies of religion, and finally—most shockingly—on himself." —Gina Frangello, author of Every Kind of Wanting and A Life in Men
