DARK, HONEST, UPLIFTING. THIS IS A SOBRIETY MEMOIR LIKE NO OTHER.
'This is a book that tears down walls.' Marian Keyes 'Bryony Gordon
is a terrific, compassionate writer whose razor-sharp honesty
slices through every sentence of this compelling memoir.' Liz Day
'Poetic, raw and very important.' Fearne Cotton Bryony Gordon is a
respected journalist, a number-one bestselling author and an
award-winning mental health campaigner. She is also an alcoholic.
In Glorious Rock Bottom Bryony opens up about a toxic twenty-year
relationship with alcohol and drugs and explains exactly why
hitting rock bottom - for her, a traumatic event and the abrupt
realisation that she was putting herself in danger, time and again
- saved her life. Known for her trademark honesty, Bryony re-lives
the darkest and most terrifying moments of her addiction, never
shying away from the fact that alcoholism robs you of your ability
to focus on your family, your work, your health, your children,
yourself. And then, a chink of light as the hard work begins -
rehab; twelve-step meetings; endless, tedious, painful
self-reflection - a rollercoaster ride through self-acceptance,
friendship, love and hope, to a joy and pride in staying sober that
her younger self could never have imagined. Shining a light on the
deep connection between addiction and mental health issues,
Glorious Rock Bottom is in turn, shocking, brutal, dark, funny,
hopeful and uplifting. It is a sobriety memoir like no other.
