Widely known for her essay collection "The Empathy Exams", Leslie Jamison is back with a new book that is part personal narrative, part cultural criticism, and part journalism. Jamison, now 7 years sober, tells the story of her own spiral into alcohol addiction while taking a look at the stories we tell about addiction and recovering. We talk with Jamison about her new book "The Recovering: Intoxication and Its Aftermath".
