Sarah Hepola's Blackout is more than just another drinking memoir
Blackout memoirist Sarah Hepola writes candidly about the nights she can't forget — because she can't remember them.
Sarah Hepola is an editor at Salon, a talented writer and a serious alcoholic. Her new memoir Blackout: Remembering the Things I Drank to Forget is far from the first book about drinking and addiction, but her insight and candour stand apart.
Hepola joins q guest host Candy Palmater to explain why she's blowing the lid off her story, and why she chose an opening scene that hits readers right in the gut.
