Accrobaddict : A Contortionist's Heroin Romance
Bok av Joe Putignano
A world-class athlete's harrowing tale of two passions: his ardent love for gymnastics and his intoxicating romance with heroin. Gritty and raw, this is a story that goes beyond the typical addiction memoir. A gripping narrative that captures the fragility and tenacity of the human spirit and how Putignano ultimately triumphs in his recovery and redemption. Author is a world-class athlete who has just completed a tour with Cirque du Soleil Totem. He played the main character (Crystal Man). Inspirational story with universal appeal. Has already been featured on CNN's Sanjay Gupta's Human Factor. CNN will produce two to three more videos following the author as he undergoes surgery on both of his shoulders. Endorsement from Robert Lepage, creator and director of Cirque du Soleil's Ka and Totem. Joe has been featured in a mini-documentary created by Cirque du Soleil. n Interesting approach for table of contents: using the human anatomy as a way to begin each chapter.
