Hippopotamus Sea is an autobiography, chronicling JB Smith's life, born into an alcoholic family, witness to a father's insanity, suicide at age 37, the author being 11, and then the authors slow descent into the hell of addiction to alcohol, cocaine, ICE, opiates, and ultimately speed. At 28 years old, delusions turn to full blown paranoid schizophrenia, and jumping a bridge into a dirty river the night before, he has a moment of clarity, while explaining to his innocent sister the next morning, why he was evading the CIA and wading through the river the night before. His sobriety, battle against Hepatitis C, and subsequent spiritual awakening is written, first hand for anyone to read, for free if need be, on Books4free.com. An exciting read, not your average sobriety book.
