Synopsis

Fall from Grace started as a book about drug abuse and gradually formed into a story about a lost, adopted child who responded to the world with destruction. For some reason, and as far back as I can remember, I've always felt hard done by or resentful. Maybe it's because of the adoption, but even as a young child, I was angry and destructive. I broke everything I got, and to be honest, I behaved like a delinquent. This behavior continued and progressed until that fateful day when I first tried drugs. Drugs and alcohol became the solution to an unnamed problem, and eventually developed into a life-threatening obsession that very nearly put me six feet under. Fall from Grace is mostly factual, some of the instances are from distorted memories and in that respect, the story is as true as my memories are, and maybe that isn't the most reliable source, but hey, it's done and it's my experience of what I went through. So enjoy.

Biographie de l'auteur

A South African writer, Nathan has always been a little crazy. Ask anyone that has spent time with him. Since childhood, Nathan has had this split in his personality. On the one side, he is a warm, loving, funny, and an absolute pleasure to be around. On the flip side, he is cold, calculating, and terribly self-destructive, almost like he has a death wish. Fourteen years of addiction will do that to a person. See, what you need to understand is that a lot of addicts have to adapt to survive in the world of addiction, and sadly, he has adapted very well to living the life of a junkie. Nathan has a beautiful daughter named Kayla-Marie, a supportive family and lives a peaceful and content life in the Western Cape. At the time of writing, he is twenty-eight years old, and just for today, he is clean, but as you'll soon see, nothing in Nathan's life seems to be certain.
