The recovering

Book • 2018
In 'The Recovering', Leslie Jamison offers a deeply personal and nuanced exploration of addiction and recovery, weaving together her own experiences with those of literary figures like John Berryman and David Foster Wallace.

The book challenges traditional narratives of addiction, examining the cultural and historical contexts that shape our understanding of recovery.

Jamison's work is both a memoir and a broader inquiry into the human experience of desire and dependency.
