Description

Vodka-Flavored Tears is a memoir told through twenty-six stories about growing up on the South Side of Chicago and trying to navigate through the stormy waters of childhood, adolescence, and the author's early twenties. It's a book about taking chances and making mistakes, and speaks to the part of humanity that identifies with the pain that we each go through—as we sift through ourselves—in search of a place in this world.The essays were written in order to cope with the residual effects of having to get sober and live life without the crutch that Hillegonds had leaned on for so long. He'd been running from the past for years—a volatile period that left him with a criminal record, a broken heart, and a beautiful baby girl. The stories remind us that life is short, childhood is fleeting, and we need to ride this thing until the wheels fall off.Not everyone gets expelled from high school for pranks, or ends up in jail for felonies, or lands in rehab for vodka and cocaine. Most of us were never barred from Canada, kicked out of Colorado, or homeless, desperate, and enraged. But we all know what it's like to hurt and love and lose, and do the best we can to live our lives with some semblance of dignity. We all know what it's like to fall down, pick ourselves up, and continue putting one foot in front of the other.Vodka-Flavored Tears testifies that the road less traveled can indeed be daunting, but can also prove far more fulfilling than the beaten path.
