  As a college dropout and part-time restaurant worker in downtown Toronto, Kevin is stuck in a rut. He wanders the city aimlessly and lives a solitary life while his mental health steadily declines. After reconnecting with an old college crush, he gets strung along by her once again while simultaneously getting initiated into an underground group of pickup artists promising him a remedy for his romantic frustration. Kevin comes out of his shell for what feels like the first time, giving up self-control to his newfound identity. He meets new people, learns how to seduce women, and lives what appears to be an exciting, City Boy life. That is until this emotionally confusing process stimulates a thoroughly destructive addictive personality. 
  FIX: An Untold Story of Obsession, Seduction, Addiction, & Despair is the memoir of author Kevin Luke's time spiraling into self-destruction through ruminating on feelings of anxiety, guilt, and suicidal ideation, all while managing his high-functioning mania. 
  Sourced from old journal entries and audio recordings left as streams of consciousness meant only for himself, Kevin wrote this book during a cathartic frenzy amid his darkest depressive episode experienced in years. A rare insight into the untreated bipolar mind, readers now get a voyeuristic glimpse into the author's scattered quest for self-improvement.

  I'm Just Dead, I'm Not Gone chronicles Jim Dickinson's extraordinary life in the Memphis music scene of the fifties and sixties and how he went on to play with and produce a rich array of artists, including Aretha Franklin, the Rolling Stones, Ry Cooder, Duane Allman, Arlo Guthrie, and Albert King. With verve and wit, Dickinson (1941-2009) describes how his trip to Blind Lemon's grave on the Texas flatlands as a college student and how that encounter inspired his return to Memphis. Back home, he looked up Gus Cannon and Furry Lewis, began staging plays, cofounded what would become the annual Memphis Blues Festival, and started recording.The blues, Elvis, and early rock 'n' roll compelled Dickinson to reject racial barriers and spurred his contributions to the Memphis music and experimental art scene. He explains how the family yardman, WDIA, Dewey Philips, Furry Lewis, Will Shade, and Howlin' Wolf shaped him and recounts how he went on to learn his craft at Sun, Ardent, American, Muscle Shoals, and Criteria studios from master producers Sam Phillips, John Fry, Chips Moman, and Jerry Wexler.
