One man’s story of battling drug addiction, alcohol abuse, incarceration and his own demons. Autobiographically, the writer invites us to share a disturbingly frank journey, living on the streets of England, surviving horror and committing horrific acts upon himself and others This amazing story takes readers through the UK, Europe, USA, Thailand and other countries in between, on an adventure of self-discovery, for his soul and his humanity. Originally written as a Blog as the author faced a diagnosis of terminal cancer, the response from readers of Oz's Blog took this blisteringly honest journey back through his life into a whole new - and life-affirming - direction. That this interplay between author and readers has been retained here in the published book tips it into a brand new genre all of its own, one that would have been an absurdity in the days before the internet: Interactive Autobiography. In this graphic novel, Oz, the author, takes us on a journey into his life and his mind. From his early childhood the odds for Oz’s survival in the real world were clearly stacked against him. His candour and honesty is, at times, brutally real. Supported by his friends and victims as well. The decisions he had to make, dictated by his circumstances, take us on a disturbing trip into the dark world of drugs. From boarding school, to jail, to the streets and across the world in a series of mental recollections, the reader is transported from one section of the authors mind to another. Life has forced Oz to make many hard and many stupid decisions all explained and detailed within the pages of his mental diary.
