Description

'Exceptional debut' - Tommy Orange, New York Times David has a mind that never stops running.

He reads Dante and Moby Dick, he sinks into Hemingway and battles with Milton.

But on Florida's Gulf Coast, one can slip into deep water unconsciously. At the age of fourteen, David runs away from home to pursue a girl.

He tries crack cocaine for the first time and is hooked instantly.

Over the course of the next decade, he fights his way out of jail and rehab, trying to make sense of the world around him - a sunken world where faith in anything is a privilege.

He makes his way to a tenuous sobriety, but it isn't until he takes a literature class at a community college that something within him ignites. All Day is a Long Time is a spectacular, raw account of growing up and managing, against the odds, to carve out a place for hope.

David Sanchez's debut resounds with real force and demonstrates the redemptive power of the written word.
