Rich Magi, son of an Estonian immigrant father, writes frankly about the legacy of alcoholism he inherited from a family that never talked about its painful past - a grandmother who never calls ahead and comes on the night train, a father who seems not to notice his son, a mother who martyrs herself. He writes of drinking, his own despair and, in an ultimate burst of healing and hope, the end of a fifty-year addiction.
