Opis

Writer, artist, and architect Carlton Davis takes you on an illustrated wild ride through his life as a young boy-the chip in a figurative poker game between a socialite father and a night club-singer mother that includes felony, foster care and child abuse -to his days as a bohemian artist in Los Angeles; his resurrection as a stable Buddhist meditator; and on to his crash as a cross-dressing crack addict strung out with fits of mad mania and crushing sucidal depression. After years of failure he finds redemption in diagnosis and medication.
