In his office is a hand sculpture given by a patient whose hand he reattached.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e These days, though, Glen is doing his best to keep his hands from shaking. He's on the run constantly -- from pharmaceuticals he's supposed to be prescribing for his patients. His wife is about to leave him. The DEA comes to pay him a visit. But when he's called before the hospital board, he knows his days of running wild have careened out of control.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Now It's Inescapable is a timely recovery story about a man in desperate search of love and oblivion in equal measure. Glen will do anything to avoid facing himself, and the title of the novel becomes a repeating mantra each time he gets cornered with himself -- and then ducks away. Glen is very good at wiggling out. Even after he's ordered to rehab, he takes off on a disastrous bolt to Baja California that takes him to the brink of self-destruction. He has hit the proverbial bottom.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Gradually, Glen faces the unresolved issues of his past: his neglectful and distant mother, his abusive military father, his war experiences in Iraq as a trauma surgeon, and the biggest gorilla in his living room-his addiction.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Once Glen fully commits to this fateful step, the world around him slowly reshapes to his new perspective -- the plastic surgery has its positive uses, he feels more empathic with his patients, he has embarked on a promising new relationship that he must take slowly. In the closing scenes Glen and his sponsor do a medical mission to Guatemala, and his tormented past is transformed into his best asset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bill McClausland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1645507041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781645507048\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Matchstick Literary\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Bill McClausland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48850398839039,"sku":"9781645507048","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/now-its-inescapable-bill-mcclausland-9781645507048","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
