Anyone who has experienced a hangover knows: rarely does a person feel so lonely, miserable, and worthless. What can help? Vitamin injections? Eggnog? Hangover cure? Shock therapy? In search of the perfect cure, Shaughnessy Bishop-Stoll tried everything and even overdid it. Turns in a fighter jet, a jump from a skyscraper, a walrus swim, a visit to a voodoo priestess... His research covered dozens of countries and every possible way to get back on your feet.
This book, paid for by the author's health, is complemented by a cultural and medical history of hangovers and attempts to cope with them. From the longest naturalistic binge ever seen, Bishop-Stoll emerged not only with a witty book about what ails so many, designed to relieve sufferers of their torment.
