Answer by Sweet
Tweak: Growing Up on Methamphetamines by Nic Sheff book is much easier to understand if you read the author’s father’s book, also recently published, called “Beautiful Boy: A Father’s Journey Through His Son’s Meth Addiction” by David Sheff. By reading his father’s account of the same time, you understand from a parent’s perspective just what is going on with Nic Sheff. You understand how brilliant and talented Nic is (he will not tell you this in his book) and you understand what this novel explores—his descent into methamphetamine addiction, how he lived for many years, how he squandered his potential by avoiding dealing with life, and the consequences in his life and in the lives of those he loves. Once you know more about who the young author is, you can appreciate his book so very, very much more.
