520    Will Self is one of Britain's best-known contemporary 
       writers, a public intellectual whose novels have been 
       shortlisted for the Booker Prize and translated into over 
       twenty languages. In Will, his first ever memoir, he turns
       his attention fully to his own self, and in particular his
       addictions as a young man. An addiction memoir like no 
       other, Will echoes the best of Self's psychedelic fiction,
       and is one of the most eloquent depictions of the allure 
       of hard drugs ever written. Will spins the reader from 
       Self's childhood in a North London suburb to his mind-
       expanding education at Oxford, to a Burroughsian trip to 
       Morocco, an outback vision in Australia, and, finally, a 
       surreal turn in rehab. Self uses drugs from a young age, 
       hiding acid, amphetamine, and weed in a tin of Dilly 
       Duckling cough pastilles. His university years are fueled 
       with books but also with 'heroin, hashish, cocaine, grass 
       and amphetamine.' Self smokes dope in suburbia, buys opium
       in India, and even injects methamphetamine on a camping 
       trip in Wales's Black Mountains. And his extreme highs 
       inevitably give way to deep lows, an enthralling cycle 
       that persists and repeats. One of the best minds of our 
       generation, whose mordant humor and vivid images shine in 
       this technicolor portrait of family, art, and self-
       expression, Self has written in Will both a kunstlerroman 
       and confessional, a tale of excess and degradation, a 
       karmic cycle that leads back to the author's own lack of .
       . . will.
