{"product_id":"failing-upwards-julian-caesar-9781508610137","title":"Failing Upwards.","description":"Sex. Drugs. Heartbreak. Hesitation Marks. Substance Abuse. Virginity. BDSM. Failure. At 17 years old, I was a devout Catholic who refused to use profanity and was insistent on saving himself for marriage. At 27 years old, I thought about the person I once was while snorting cocaine off of his passport until the early morning at a hotel in West Hollywood. Failing Upwards is the classic coming of age story. Sort of. I spent a decade of my life depressed, angry and aimless. I responded to that with an amoral hedonism that at times, flirted with nihilism. At some point in that decade, something interesting happened - I realized I had an exceptional talent for being a troublemaker. What began as a response to discomfort with myself and the world around me, turned into intentional lifestyle choices. Failing Upwards is about how a Catholic schoolboy morphed into a clove smoking, whiskey spilling, licentious degenerate. Grab a seat. Grab a drink. These are the stories from a life lived questionably.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julian Caesar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1508610134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781508610137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/11\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.36d","brand":"Julian Caesar","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48459157897471,"sku":"9781508610137","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_da550710-7b67-4da6-bbd0-e0d5d5962ad0.jpg?v=1777408271","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/failing-upwards-julian-caesar-9781508610137","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
