Hello To All That
A Memoir of War, Zoloft, and Peace
Henry Holt & Co., January 2005
His own chemistry was his worst enemy, and it took John Falk to some very strange places–from Garden City, Long Island, to sniper-infested Sarajevo during the Bosnian bloodbath. But through it all, in the face of chronic depression, Falk kept reaching out for the life he’d always wanted. Hello to All That is his story–crazed, comic, poignant, suspenseful, and hopeful.
“Falk’s wise, comical testament ends on a joyous note of a marriage and a Details magazine article that morphed into a Peabody Award—winning HBO movie, Shot Through the Heart, making his story an unlikely personal triumph over depression. ”
—Publishers’ Weekly
“This is a thoroughly engaging memoir, sometimes hilarious and sometimes horrifying, as Falk recalls episodes in a brutal war and one man’s personal struggle to reconnect with life.”
