It was love at first taste for fifteen-year-old Tadhg Hickey when he drank a can of Scrumpy Jack on the night of his exam results. Straight away it provided a cure for that constant feeling of 'something wrong, something not quite right', a way of numbing anxiety and childhood trauma. He realised he was extraordinarily good at drinking and energetically threw himself into a life of pubs, parties and staying pissed, while also managing to become a comedian. But alcohol had the last laugh ...

A Portrait of the Piss Artist as a Young Man shows us the often-hilarious lengths of self-deception an alcoholic will go to, the horrific consequences of addiction and the redemptive process of recovering from this deadly but ultimately treatable illness, and remaining sober. A deeply touching memoir and with a side of self-help, Tadhg's easy-going writing style belies his serious message - that each of us has the power to change our lives.

Tadhg Hickey is a comedian, actor, writer, director, voice-over artist and an alcoholic. He has written and performed sitcoms and Player series for RTÉ, his viral sketches have achieved global critical and media acclaim, and his one-man shows enjoy sell-out tours throughout Ireland and the UK. He lives in the best city in the best country in the world - Cork, Ireland, obviously - with his partner and newborn baby. The piss artist's newborn needs nappies, so buy this book.
