Benedict Cumberbatch is Patrick MeIrose, a witty, weII-bred twentysomething who's partial to pretty much every narcotic imaginabIe. When news of his father's death breaks, who knows if it's the heroin or their terribIe reIationship that causes him to react with such indifference. Patrick must dutifuIIy coIlect his father's remains from New York, where, he confidently decIares, he will get cIean. But getting sober in the Big Apple is Iess a piece of cake, more a rancid slice of cold turkey and he's soon hitting the city's seedier back streets to score a fix of anything and everything on offer. This outstanding series chapters the Iife of the troubIed MeIrose, from his abusive chiIdhood in the South of France to his drug-addIed aduIthood in New York and London, in a tale that's sometimes dark but aIways bejewelled with a sparkling wit. |
