New book from Mike Edison !

YOU ARE A COMPLETE DISAPPOINTMENT:
A TRIUMPHANT MEMOIR OF FAILED EXPECTATIONS

(Sterling Publishing)

“You are a complete disappointment.” On his deathbed, Mike Edison’s father gasped those words to his son—and that was just the beginning of his devastating salvo.

For anyone who has ever suffered from parental bullying, this often-hilarious yet intensely heartbreaking memoir from the former High Times publisher will provide both solace and laughter.

Edison takes us on a warped suburban odyssey that pulls no punches when it comes to the adversity and adventures of growing up in the 1970s and ‘80s, “the tail end of an age of bewildered enlightenment” — sibling rivalries, Ronald Reagan, the Rolling Stones, abysmal family dinners, sex, drugs, terrified parents, and Jewish guilt are just the beginning of an adolescence forged in equal parts of boundless self-exploration and needless doubt.
