Publisher Description
In this groundbreaking memoir, Stephen Elliott pursues parallel investigations: a gripping account of a notorious San Francisco murder trial, and an electric exploration of the self. Destined to be a classic, The Adderall Diaries was described by The Washington Post as ” a serious literary work designed to make you see the world as you’ ve never quite seen it before.”

“An endlessly fascinating memoir by a profoundly courageous writer…Despite the luridness of the subject matter, the author creates a refined, beautiful work of art. His themes—seemingly crime, murder, drugs, and sadomasochistic sex—actually encapsulate the nature of truth, self, love, and memory, and the limits of art to get at them all. Deserves a place on the shelf next to such classics of uninhibited American introspection as On the Road and A Fan’s Notes.”
