Honesty, Literature, and Gratitude in a Chaotic World

James Frey is the author of "A Million Little Pieces," a book that spoke to the deepest, darkest parts of countless readers in early recovery.

This conversation explores his journey to become literature's bad boy, his heroes like Baudelaire and Henry Miller, and his philosophy of "prowling with the panther." We discuss the intersection of creativity and the Tao, where inspiration comes from, and his unique approach to capturing vitality on the page.

Along the way, James recounts a few things he's never shared publicly.

This is a manifesto on the importance of muscular books written by authors with courage. Buckle up. Enjoy!
