Original Sins

A Memoir

Matt Rowland Hill

An extraordinarily brave memoir about faith, loss and addiction. Recklessly honest, and as funny as it is grave, Original Sins is an extraordinary memoir of faith, family, shame and addiction. But ultimately it is about looking for answers to life's big questions in all the wrong places, how hope can arrive in the most unexpected forms, and how the stories we tell might help us survive. This is a brave memoir from a thrilling new writer.
