In the summer of 2012 a woman named Eva was found dead in the London townhouse she shared with her husband, Hans K. Rausing. The couple had struggled with drug addiction for years, often under the glare of tabloid headlines. Now, writing with singular clarity and restraint, Hans' sister, the editor and publisher Sigrid Rausing, tries to make sense of what happened. In Mayhem, she asks the difficult questions those close to the world of addiction must face. "Who can help the addict, consumed by a shaming hunger, a need beyond control? There is no medicine: the drugs are the medicine. And who can help their families, so implicated in the self-destruction of the addict? Who can help when the very notion of 'help' becomes synonymous with an exercise of power; a familial police state; an end to freedom, in the addict's mind?" An eloquent and timely attempt to understand the conundrum of addiction--and a memoir as devastating as it is riveting.

Mayhem: en fortelling om rus, avhengighet og en familie
Mayhem av Sigrid Rausing, er en historie om hvordan avhengighet virker på en familie. Dette er et svært velskrevet og aktuelt forsøk på å forstå den forvirrende og vanskelige avhengigheten, og en personlig skildring like ødeleggende som den er medrivende. Sommeren 2012 ble Eva Rausing funnet død i sitt hjem i London. Både hun og ektemannen, Hans K. Rausing, hadde slitt med stoffmisbruk i mange år, ofte under tabloidpressens blitzregn. Etter at Eva blir funnet død i sitt hjem, forsøker Sigrid å begripe hva som skjedde. Hun skriver om de vanskelige spørsmålene som alle med avhengighet i nær familie møter: Kunne hun hjulpet dem? Hvem skulle hjulpet dem? Og hvem kan hjelpe familien som er så dypt involvert i den avhengiges destruktive liv? Sigrid Rausing er redaktør av Granta Magazine, samt forlegger for Granta Books og Portobello Books. “en kraftfull, lyrisk og klartenkt memoarbok som stiller opprivende spørsmål” Siri Hustvedt (forfatter)
