This is not a book of answers. It doesn't pretend to have any. This is not an inspirational text. You will not go on a quest for love and spirituality in Europe after reading this. This is a book of truths. This is a book of insanity, disease, addiction, and sex. This is not a book of shame, redemption, or an apology. This is the gospel according to a basket-case. From the publisher: this memoir is composed of a series of nonlinear vignettes. The title and concept of the memoir is in reference to the bible (it is not a religious text). The gospel - the indisputable truth - in this collection is presented as an American youth's testament to the United States of adolescence. It's served as a cautionary tale told through multiple acts - similarly to the New Testament - each act is equally crucial to the story and concept as a whole. This is the rebellious confessional of today's youth. The stories are unapologetic and raw. The author presents life told through vignettes showing teenage reality like it's never been seen before.
