Critic reviews

"Mishka's writing is clever, vivid and honest. As the reader, you are transported into his world. You get to experience his tumultuous journey from substance abuser to marathon runner, his misadventures in reality television, his pursuit by an online stalker and much more. Mishka's life collects stories, and luckily for us, he's very good at telling them. It is an honor to invite you to enjoy Mishka Shubaly's collection. In the end, we as readers are uplifted by the force and transcendent talent of writers like Mishka. As we live their lives, we learn about our own." (Jeff Bezos)

I'd never heard of Mishka Shubaly when I came across this collection. I'm so glad I clicked on it. i I loved the raw honesty, humor, the deep self-reflection of a man who struggles to love himself. Also, he's a good reader. Highly recommend to anyone who likes true stories of hardship and redemption.
