Deltaville-based High Tide Publications Inc. announced this month the release of area author David Cariens’ new book, “Escaping Madness: Alcoholism-Mental Illness-Murder.”
“I had an idyllic childhood. I idolized my older brother,” Cariens said. “My family could have been the model for a 1950s sitcom. There was nothing that gave a hint of the storm to come. But it did come, and it destroyed my family in its wake. Despite the madness, it is a story of hope, of overcoming tragedy, of realizing that without the storm I would have never gone on to be an advocate or author.”
The book opened to good reviews.
