Title: dangerous lies
Product review: Frey has done addicts a terrible injustice. Having been to Hazelton myself, it is obvious that this is the treatment center described in the book. "A Million Little Pieces"is palmed off as an autobiography, but Frey openly lies about many aspects of Hazelton's treatment methods - such as claiming that screaming patients are held behind bars in the detox unit, or that he had to have dental surgery without anesthesia. His strange account of saving his girl friend from a crack house is clearly totally manufatured. But in the end the worst thing Frey does is to make obvious that treatment did nothing for him: he did it on his own. This supercilious finale will cause suffering drug addicts and alcoholics to believe they can do the same, which 99% cannot.
