SUMMARY:Benoit Denizet-Lewis Book Signing
DESCRIPTION:Discussion & Signing for “America Anonymous”\n1/12 at 7pm\nBorders\, 2817 N Clark St (773) 935-3909\n\nAccording to the National Institute on Drug Abuse\, an estimated 23 million Americans are hooked on drugs or alcohol\, representing an annual economic loss of $524 billion. Millions more have become enslaved to other compulsive behaviors: overeating\, sex\, gambling and shoplifting. Denizet-Louis follows eight average Americans—including an athlete and a grandparent— who are struggling with addiction. He covers three years in the lives of his subjects\, portraying them with candor and compassion\, giving these compulsions a more human face by telling the story of his own sex and pornography dependence\, for which he twice sought inpatient treatment. This book provides an intriguing glimpse into the brain of an addict and the new hit or miss treatments.
