William Cope Moyers was a model of sober success. As his inspiring story of overcoming addiction was on its way to becoming a New York Times bestseller, everyone thought he had finally achieved the redemption promised by recovery--including him. But the perfect story that helped Moyers become a famous face of the recovery movement was already unraveling, revealing a yet-to-be healed chasm between his public persona and conflicted inner life. A follow-up to his 2006 memoir Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption, this is Moyers's story of the ups and downs of life beyond the bright moments of early sobriety and what happened when a new addiction invaded what once seemed like a safe and steady recovery. William didn't know something was missing until it happened. He'd been in recovery for alcohol and drugs for years. He was a recovery activist and a spokesperson for the gold standard of treatment and recovery organizations. He was a model leader and follower of Twelve Step programs. But, still, he slipped. And his slip lasted a few years. Privately, he was addicted to painkillers while publicly saying he was in recovery from alcohol and drug use. So, was he still in recovery? How could this happen to someone who did everything "right"? How did it go so wrong? With brutal honesty and introspection, William shares what happened after sobriety--after he'd published his candid and shocking memoir, Broken, in 2006. While he no longer frequented or passed out on the floor of crack houses, his life of sobriety wasn't perfect. But his recovery was strong, or so he thought. Unfortunately, the opioid epidemic was stronger. It broke him. Broken Open could be one long story of self-justification. Instead, William takes a courageous look at the years he struggled and suffered to reclaim his recovery. He concludes by sharing the new perspectives these experiences provided. Recovery isn't black and white. Our recovery stories aren't things we have to live up to; they're journeys we get to live into. All-or-nothing approaches don't address the complications that make us human. As we continue our life journeys we learn and change and grow--and the things and people that help us sometimes change too.

Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption

Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption

William Cope Moyers; Katherine Ketcham

PENGUIN BOOKS
2007
nidottu
Candid, shocking, and unforgettable, Broken is a haunting and clear-eyed tale that offers hope for all those wrestling with addiction Unlike some popular memoirs that have fictionalized and romanticized the degradations of drug addiction, Broken is a true-life tale of recovery that stuns and inspires with virtually every page. The eldest son of journalist Bill Moyers, William Cope Moyers relates with unforgettable clarity the story of how a young man with every advantage found himself spiraling into a love affair with crack cocaine that led him to the brink of death-and how a deep spirituality allowed him to conquer his shame, transform his life, and dedicate himself to changing America's politics of addiction. "William Cope Moyers's lucid, measured tale of his own plunge into crack-addled hell is] frightening in its very realism." -USA Today

Thomas Percival was born in England in 1384. At the age of 13, he meets Nicodemus, a dwarf like himself, and Thomas runs away from home and joins the nefarious entertainer's traveling circus. Nicodemus teaches the lad how to juggle, play the lute, and pick a lock, as well as the secrets of the Magnii, the ancient, mythical race that lived in the distant past with men and giants. When Thomas is imprisoned for mocking the Bishop of Winchester, he meets Hal, the son of the exiled Earl of Derby. When Hal's father overthrows Richard II and claims the English throne as Henry IV, Thomas becomes Magnus the Magnificent, jester to the Crown. When Hal inherits the crown after the death of his father, Magnus accompanies Henry V to France where the monarch defeats the French nobility in the Battle of Agincourt, marries the daughter of mad King Charles VI, and becomes king of both England and France.Magnus's most daunting challenge occurs in 1422, when Henry, along with his wife Catherine and their infant son Henry, are living in the castle of Vincennes outside of Paris. Someone is trying to poison the king; battling through murder, mystery and mayhem, Magnus and his clever companion Friar Petronius must find the plotters before their evil scheme can succeed.
