"There have been two great loves in Matt Rowland Hill's life so far: Jesus and heroin. Hill grew up the son of a minister in a strict Baptist church. After a crisis of loss of faith, he obsessively turned to literature before becoming addicted to crack and heroin in his early twenties. Hill's addiction stretched over a decade, culminating in a suicide attempt, weeks on a secure psychiatric unit and finally getting clean thanks to rehab that forced him to confront the religion that he had spent his whole life running from. 'Original Sins' is a memoir of faith, family, loss, shame and addiction, but ultimately it is about survival, growing up and learning to live."--From publisher.
