Follow the story of Devin Smith-a product of modern-day suburbia whose wholesome upbringing spirals into an American nightmare-as he relentlessly seeks inner peace in a world where all that glitters truly is not gold.
The book marks author Yusuf Blanton's debut to the literary world, as he bravely dances the line between brutally honest memoir and riveting modern fiction.
Dealing interchangeably with drug addiction, raucous sex, urban music, and the objective pursuit of spirituality, "The Agonizing Road to Self" seeks to turn heads, engage minds, and touch hearts.
"If every person on Earth wrote something this personal, forthright, and honest, we might all be able to understand one another and appreciate each others' faults, downfalls, despairs, and joys. ... Through it all, Yusuf never fails to inspire."
-Mason Hall, editor
"If you were touched by Cupcake Brown's phenomenal autobiography, A Piece of Cake, then the floodgates of compassion and hope are bound to burst open after reading Yusuf Blanton's dose-of-reality debut novel."
-Gigi James, television writer and
award-winning author of I Didn't Sign Up For This
"The intensity of this book is sure to strike some chord in anyone who reads it. .".. The Agonizing Road to Self" is a powerful testament to the struggles of humanity."
-James Lord, Zojak Worldwide
