About

Astonishing. Searingly honest with plenty of drama it is the true story of a young life led that promised much, and delivered more than could ever have been envisaged until the bottom fell out of the author's world.

From the realms of high finance and a chance encounter with the President to the comedic pathos of the participation in a football tournament, as an inpatient of a psychiatric facility.

After a lengthy period flat out on the canvas of life, our pugilist in all but name gets back into the ring and makes another attempt, successful again, to prove you can't keep a good man down.

If only that were the end of the story. But there's a sting in the tail that brings listeners up short. The lesson: it really is a good idea to make the most of every day granted to you.

Tom Reiss professes to know less and less about life as he poignantly, and with good humor, reflects upon his own.
