Fifteen million Americans a year are plagued with alcoholism. Five million of them are women. Many of them, like Caroline Knapp, started in their early teens and began to use alcohol as "liquid armor," a way to protect themselves against the difficult realities of life. In this extraordinarily candid and revealing memoir, Knapp offers important insights not only about alcoholism, but about life itself and how we learn to cope with it.It was love at first sight. The beads of moisture on a chilled bottle. The way the glasses clinked and the conversation flowed. Then it became obsession. The way she hid her bottles behind her lover's refrigerator. The way she slipped from the dinner table to the bathroom, from work to the bar. And then, like so many love stories, it fell apart. Drinking is Caroline Kapp's harrowing chronicle of her twenty-year love affair with alcohol.Caroline had her first drink at fourteen. She drank through her yeras at an Ivy League college, and through an award-winning career as an editor and columnist. Publicly she was a dutiful daughter, a sophisticated professional. Privately she was drinking herself into oblivion. This startlingly honest memoir lays bare the secrecy, family myths, and destructive relationships that go hand in hand with drinking. And it is, above all, a love story for our times—full of passion and heartbreak, betrayal and desire—a triumph over the pain and deception that mark an alcoholic life. Praise for Drinking “Quietly moving . . . Caroline Knapp dazzles us with her heady description of alcohol's allure and its devastating hold.”Los Angeles Times Book Review“Filled with hard-won wisdom . . . [a] perceptive and revealing book.”San Francisco Chronicle “Eloquent . . . a remarkable exercise in self-discovery.”The New York Times “Drinking not only describes triumph; it is one.”Newsweek

Do you love a crisp Sauvignon Blanc? Know what goes best with Risotto? Enjoy Mimosas for weekend breakfasts? Bloodies at sundown on the deck of the Hunter 380? G&T's in the afternoon? Think VSOP Hennessy is the only civilized cognac? Believe it's always five o'clock somewhere? Congratulations, You may be a sophisticated functional alcoholic. As was Caroline Knapp for twenty years until she finally came to her senses and realized that she and her well-heeled family and friends were essentially drug addicts. The drug of choice was alcohol: legal, mass marketed, promoted to be the mark of sophistication."Holding one's liquor" was a test of maturity and distinction. It's ethanol and flavored water. It's addictive, and destroys careers, livers and lives. But it's a drug that makes corporations wealthy, and many are led to the slaughter to fill those coffers. Read her book, and a take long, objective look at the love of alcohol in a strong, clear light.
