“A Million Little Pieces”
“A Million Little Pieces” is the other book I read while travelling last week. In this autobiographical novel James Frey describes his time in rehab attempting to recover from ten years as an alcoholic and three as a crack addict. It’s a powerful, raw piece of writing that will give you insight — more than you ever wanted — into the mind and soul of an addict. Not for the faint of heart.
Along with “The Wisdom of Crowds”, I’ve added this to my Really Good Stuff list.

Hello everyone,
I sent my copy of “A Million Little Pieces” to
Oprah Winfrey
c/o Harpo Productions
1058 West Washington Blvd
Chicago IL 60607-2103
I think Oprah should be more carefull before recommending a bogus non-fiction book.
I would really like her to reimburse me as well.
How about, “A Million Little Refunds”.
Wouldn’t it be fun if the Post Office had to deliver
A Million Little Packages to Oprah’s studio?
P.S. Media mail is only $1.59
and Notice of delivery is .60.
