Jolly Lad is a memoir about the recovery from alcoholism, habitual medicine use, and mental illness. Additionally it is about the restoration power of music, how storage defines us, the redemption offered by fatherhood, and what this means to be working category. "This isn't a 'my drink and medicine hell' kind of booklet for several reasons - the main one being that I had formed, generally, had a really good time drinking alcohol. True, a handful of very appalling things have happened certainly to me and a lot of people that I know or used to learn over time. But I have, generally, kept them out of this book because they are not illuminating, not edifying and occasionally concern other people who aren't here to consent with their appearance. Instead this booklet specializes in what you face following the drink and the drugs have removed." Jolly Lad is about gentrification; being diagnosed bipolar; going to Alcoholics Anonymous; living in a stop of flats on a housing house in London; the subconscious destruction done by psychedelic drugs; despair; DJing; manufacturing plant work; friendship; growing old; hallucinations; street assault and obsessive behavior - especially regarding music and skill.
