Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore
From staggering into his first meeting for recovery, to the moment he knew another drink would kill him, Beyond Recovery offers an intimate glimpse into the life of an alcoholic. Shawn Langwell gives a front row seat to what it looks like to hit bottom, and the slow process of healing one day at a time. Through stories that start from childhood, Langwell reveals his painful journey of innocence lost as he grew up in the 1960s surrounded by drugs and free love. He shares about his hippie upbringing in the San Francisco Bay Area, the devastating moment his father abandoned his family, and his role of growing up fast and picking up the pieces. He also shares the shame and discomfort he felt as the child of an absent father, and how alcohol became his escape. In this transparent memoir, Langwell divulges his downward spiral into addiction, his decision to get sober, and the tools he used to help him handle life's tragedies without turning to the bottle.

"Couldn't put it down!"
"I highly recommend this book!! I would recommend this book if someone is struggling with addiction. It is a raw memoir of someone’s struggle with addiction and alcoholism. I could not put it down. I literally read it in 2 days. I could relate to being in recovery myself. The feeling of inadequacy and failure plagued me until I found AA." -MB

"Great story of personal triumph...
I read this book in two days and couldn't put it down! Such a journey of physical and emotional pain to forgiveness and finding love within himself and his life purpose.
A friend told me that She was reading Beyond Recovery and she could not put it down. I was a little skeptical but followed her recommendation. I absolutely delighted that I did. It's not only a great, albeit at times, heartbreaking story of the author's experience as a child being introduced to drugs and alcohol too early in life and his subsequent trouble with addiction, his road to recovery, and the ultimate purpose he has found in serving others. He is a fabulous storyteller and an excellent writer. The reader is offered an intimate peek into his childhood adolescence and early adulthood. I highly recommend this book to anyone struggling with any kind of addiction. The book is a testament not only to the author's powerful journey but to the power of getting and staying clean and sober." - L
