Drugs, madness, and a quest for enlightenment are Joel Agee's inheritance from the 1960s. Now sober, he recounts his adventures and knows the ghosts of past terrors--his own and his brother's, who died by his own hand at the age of 27--are still trapped and crying for release. To find them, he must write his way into the house of his fear.
