Have you ever felt hooked on an activity or a substance, whether intoxicating or seemingly more benign? Did you know that the word “addiction” comes from a Latin verb that means “to worship” and that in Roman law, an addiction was an enslaved person? Have you ever wanted to speed shirtless through a Nevada snowstorm to certain death on the back of a lunatic’s motorcycle to put everything finally to rest? Did something compel you to do otherwise? If you can relate, check out Model Citizen by Joshua Mohr to find out if “addicts dream of electric shame,” what awakens them, and how they face the world when they do.
