In this inspired analysis of the life and sufferings of Eugene O'Neill, Geoffrey Thompson shows how addiction and recovery are fundamentally about the stories we live by and the communities we live in. For Thompson, O'Neill's struggle for redemption challenges our conventional understandings of addiction and dramatically illustrates the need to consider how addicts confront existential issues in their efforts to find meaning and live meaningful lives in society, even as they often fail.
