About this product
Product Information
Mike Doughty first came to prominence as the leader of the band Soul Coughing then did an abrupt sonic left turn, much to the surprise of his audience, transforming into a solo performer of stark, dusky, but strangely hopeful tunes. He battled addiction, gave up fame when his old band was at the height of its popularity, drove thousands of miles, alone, across America, with just an acoustic guitar. His candid, hilarious, self-lacerating memoir, The Book of Drugs -- featuring cameos by Redman, Ani DiFranco, the late Jeff Buckley, and others -- is the story of his band's rise and bitter collapse, the haunted and darkly comical life of addiction, and the perhaps even weirder world of recovery.

Reviews
" The Book of Drugs has many of the staples we've come to expect from a rock 'n' roll tell-all. There are stories about consuming ridiculous amounts of illegal narcotics, and having ridiculous amounts of raunchy sex with people you've just met, and hating your bandmates for not respecting your awesomeness, and then kicking the drugs and meaningless sex and stupid band and realizing what's important in life...But The Book of Drugs manages to transcend its own clichés...Doughty's misadventures are weirdly relatable, even if you've never spent a small fortune on heroin or had sex with strangers in multiple time zones." Wisconsin State Journal , 2/1/12 "Candid and unsparing, and better written than most of its ilk...A powerful read." This Week in New York, 2/1/12 "A no-holds-barred look at that old music cliché, sex, drugs, and rock and roll." Blurt Online, 2/6/12
