Where it came from
Dangerous When Wet: A Memoir of Booze, Sex, and My Unlikely Adventures in New York was published in 2015 by St. Martin's Press. The memoir documents Jamie Brickhouse's experiences as a literary publicist in New York City, detailing his struggles with alcoholism, his complex relationship with his mother, and his recovery process. It serves as a candid exploration of the high-pressure lifestyle of the Manhattan publishing industry during the late 1990s and early 2000s.
The book is noted for its dark humor and raw vulnerability, shifting between narratives of debauchery and poignant personal growth. Critics largely received the work as a fast-paced, witty entry into the recovery memoir genre, highlighting Brickhouse's ability to balance tragic subject matter with an engaging, storytelling prose style.
