What The Reviewers Say

Harvey Freedenberg,
Bookreporter
On several levels, novelist Will Self’s memoir, Will, is anything but an easy read.
Alex Preston,
The Guardian (UK)
Self’s latest act of perversity is to follow up...acclaimed novels with a drug memoir told in the third person.
Human Bareket,
The Times Literary Supplement (UK)
The logistical minutiae of drug-taking have always been exceedingly boring.
William Grabowski,
Library Journal
Self charges his first-ever memoir with harrowing—and, occasionally, humorous—accounts of drug addiction.
