Rising young comedian Moshe Kasher is lucky to be alive. He started using drugs when he was just 12. At that point, he had already been in psychoanlysis for 8 years. By the time he was 15, he had been in and out of several mental institutions, drifting from therapy to rehab to arrest to, you get the picture. But this biography is not an "eye opener" to the horrors of addiction. It's a hilarious memoir about the absurdity of it all.
