The classic tale of one man's struggle with alcoholism, this
revolutionary novel remains Charles Jackson's best-known book--a
daring autobiographical work that paved the way for contemporary
addiction literature.
It is 1936, and on the East Side of Manhattan, a would-be writer
named Don Birnam decides to have a drink. And then another, and
then another, until he's in the midst of what becomes a five-day
binge. "The Lost Weekend" moves with unstoppable speed, propelled
by a heartbreaking but unflinching truth. It catapulted Charles
Jackson to fame, and endures as an acute study of the ravages of
alcoholism, as well as an unforgettable parable of the condition of
the modern man.
