«Min vän Leonard» is James Frey's autobiography, published by Albert Bonniers Förlag in paperback (434 pages, in Swedish).
James Frey continues his story after rehabilitation: broke and isolated, he finds Leonard again, a former companion from the treatment center who protects him, offers him an unconventional job and encourages him to write. The friendship between the two, with Leonard as a father figure, sustains a narrative about addiction, sobriety and personal reconstruction.
Sequel to «Tusen små bitar» (A Million Little Pieces), Frey's first autobiographical book. The English original of this work, «My Friend Leonard», dates from 2005; this Swedish edition is translated by Örjan Sjögren.
For readers of memoirs, addiction testimonies and stories of overcoming, especially those already familiar with «Tusen små bitar».
James Christopher Frey is an American writer and businessman. His first two books, A Million Little Pieces (2003) and My Friend Leonard (2005), were bestsellers marketed as memoirs. Large parts of the books were later found to be exaggerated or fabricated, sparking a media controversy. His 2008 novel Bright Shiny Morning was similarly a bestseller.
