Publisher's Synopsis
After years of hard-won sobriety, while rebuilding a life with his wife and young daughter, Joshua Mohr suffers a stroke at the age of 35 - his third, it turns out - which uncovers a heart condition requiring surgery. And fentanyl, one of his myriad drugs of choice, is prescribed. This forced 'freelapse' should fix his heart, but what will it do to his sobriety? And what if it doesn't work? Told in stunning, surreal, time-hopping vignettes,'Model Citizen' is a raw, revealing portrait of an addict. Mohr shines a harsh spotlight into all corners of his life, throwing the wild joys, tragedies, embarrassments and adventures of his past into bold relief.
