Synopsis

POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS “I woke up from an alcohol induced coma and three weeks later I started this book,” writes Jeffrey L. Buford, Jr., whose tell-all story of a young man in his twenties struggling to conquer the horrors of his past and build his future is told in compelling prose. This is the story of more than just the experiences of one man; the ideas contained in these pages challenge the very social order by which we live. Through the author’s journey we learn about a young artist who stands up all people and everything that is done crookedly and wrong in the United States when it comes to human relations. How can a 29 year old have so much to say to warrant a memoir? Because Mr. Buford has lived through so much in so little time; deaths, years of emotional, physical, and drug abuse within his family – the author has lived through the kinds of real horror in life that destroys families and kills the human spirit. While battling these demons Mr. Buford attended college, worked as a teacher, a librarian, a writer, a musician, and a painter. His story shows that people can climb out from the raw pit of hell that many are thrust into at birth, and if a person is fortunate enough to reach adulthood Mr. Buford proves that the sky is the limit. This is a story of survival in the desert landscapes of human cruelty. When you reach the end of Possible Side Effects you will come out wanting more.
