The Dark Night of Recovery: Conversations from the Bottom of the Bottle
Health Communications, Inc. 1999
Edward Bear (pseudonym)
has published several fiction pieces in small literary magazines and a
novel about baseball. As a volunteer at a local hospice, he pushes the
cocktail cart on Friday afternoons delivering drinks to the terminally
ill. Given his background and his tenuous relationship with alcohol and
drugs, he sometimes thinks he hears a cosmic chuckle as he makes his rounds.
He lives in Denver with his second wife. He has six marvelous children
from a previous marriage, plays a vintage Martin guitar and writes in
whatever time the gods have left for him.
