waynehead83 Posted March 20, 2013 Has anyone read any good true life stories / autobiographies / biographies about alcoholics? The more horrific and depressing the better, thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lumo Posted March 25, 2013 I have not yet read this, but The Grass Arena: An Autobiography by John Healy is on my to-read list and seems to meet your description. http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Grass-Arena-Autobiography-Classics/dp/0141189592/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1364173570&sr=8-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian. Posted March 25, 2013 Being Gazza is a tragic read, when I finished it I couldn't help but feel desperately sorry for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drislane Posted May 7, 2013 Paul McGrath’s Back from the Brink: The Autobiography is a searing dispatch from the dark margins. Given your, ahem, criteria, it may be just what you are looking for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
