David Sanchez

David has a mind that never stops running. He reads Dante and Moby Dick, he sinks into Hemingway and battles with Milton. But on Florida's Gulf Coast, one can slip into deep water unconsciously; at the age of fourteen, David runs away from home to pursue a girl and, on his journey, tries crack cocaine for the first time. He's hooked instantly. Over the next decade, he fights his way out of jail and rehab, trying to make sense of the world around him, a sunken world where faith in anything is a privilege
