Truth serum : memoirs / Bernard Cooper.

Cooper, Bernard, 1951- (author.).

Summary:

Cooper offers his most moving and poignant effort yet. In a memoir at once affecting, witty, and dead-on accurate, he gives us the chance to accompany him as he reinvents memory - from Theresa Sanchez, the worldly and sophisticated girl who sat behind him in ninth-grade algebra, to the events surrounding his mother's purchase of a Kenmore freezer, to his experience in 1974 with a psychiatrist who mainlined him with a truth-telling cocktail intended to "reduce the frequency and intensity" of the author's sexual fantasies involving men.
