I remember having loved this book the first time I read it in high school. As an adult, I was kind of disgusted with through the author was, as depicted in these memoir essays. The interview after the book (audiobook) is a massive boon to the author, because it seems like he's disgusted with who he was at this point too. Not a fan of the volume of slurs used in this, but it is true to life of an alcoholic in New York in the 80s and 90s, I guess.
