Description
Rising young comedian Kasher started using drugs when he was just 12. At that point, he had already been in psychoanalysis for eight years. By the time he was 15, he had been in and out of several mental institutions, drifting from therapy to rehab to arrest. But "Kasher in the Rye" is not an "eye opener" to the horrors of addiction. It's a hilarious memoir about the absurdity of it all.
