title: The Lost Chapters
author:  Lisa Anderson 
description: Set in part against the dangerous glory of Madison Avenue in the 1950's and '60s, Lisa Anderson tells the story of how she finally learned the truth about her father's unexpected death in Tokyo in 1974. The discovery of an unfinished novel that survived a house fire compels the author to look into the past to find out why an extraordinary man would self-destruct at the height of his advertising career. What insights could she find in his writing? Was there a darker side to creative genius? This provocative memoir invites others seeking the truth about a loss to go the distance. "Healing comes in getting the story right," the author says. The Lost Chapters explores class, love, and the legacy of addiction, and delivers a hopeful rendering of a difficult journey.
