5150

5150 A Manic Depressive Adventure is the first memoir by writer Tony del Zompo. Tony was by all appearances a regular guy. Although he struggled with alcoholism and addiction during his adolescence, he got clean and sober before his twenty-second birthday and went on to start a family, complete a graduate education, and begin a career in health care. Tony did not realize at the time, however, that sobriety was only the beginning; he had not idea that he had reached adulthood completely unaware of the work that remained. The story truly begins when his marriage ends. At times funny, frequently gut-wrenching, what ensues is a wildly unpredictable journey that can only end when the protagonist is confronted with an opportunity to make the last decision he may ever have to face.
