Description
An extraordinarily brave memoir about faith, family, shame and addiction - an Observer, New Statesman and Sunday Times Book of the Year''Brilliant... lively, engaging and extremely well written - scrupulously, painfully honest... sharply funny'' PANDORA SYKES, SUBSTACKMatt Rowland Hill grew up the son of a minister in an evangelical Christian church. It was a childhood fraught with bitter family conflict and the fear of damnation. After a devastating loss of faith in his late teens, Matt began his search for salvation elsewhere, eventually becoming addicted to crack and heroin - an ordeal that stretched over a decade and culminated in a period of hopeless darkness.Recklessly honest, and as funny as it is grave, Original Sins is an extraordinary memoir of faith, family, shame and addiction. It''s about looking for answers to life''s big questions in all the wrong places, how hope can arrive in the most unexpected forms, and how the stories we tell might help us survive.''Remarkable, funny, arrestingly well-written... Brings to mind Edward St Aubyn''s Patrick Melrose novels, but is also entirely, exhilaratingly its own thing'' The Times''Electric... Artfully structured with novelistic verve... Hill is a blazing talent'' Observer''A beautifully controlled tale of a life spiralling out of control... One of the best books I''ve read this year'' Sunday TimesLONGLISTED FOR THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION AND SHORTLISTED FOR THE SLIGHTLY FOXED BEST FIRST BIOGRAPHY PRIZE AND WALES BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD
