He delves into the infamous consequences of those rough mornings, drawing on the experiences of the greats of the past—from Noah to Churchill to pitcher David Wells—and reveals his own personal quest to find relief, and quite possibly a cure.

All the time I was reading, I was either choked up or grinning from ear to ear. This is a stunning debut.” -Paul Quarrington, author of Whale Music and The Spirit Cabinet “Some writers go to great lengths to write a book. They climb Mount Everest, follow armies into war zones, go undercover with a professional sports team or travel around the world on a motorbike, unicycle or other type of contraption. Shaughnessy Bishop-Stall has more guts than any of those writers.” -Edmonton Journal “I have no idea who Shaughnessy Bishop-Stall really is, but he had a lot of guts to set out on this project, and he has even more talent to have pulled it off.” -National Post Comp Titles W.
