Even if hardcore punk nor straight edge is your cup of tea, I totally recommend you to read
Sober Living for the Revolution: Hardcore Punk, Straight Edge, and Radical Politics by
Gabriel Kuhn. It's a surprisingly critical and interesting read about sobriety, straight edge and politics. Here you get to hear both positive reports as well as quite negative tales about straight edge and about sober living in radical groups.
And if you live in the Gotenburg area I think you should come to
Nordengården on April 28th, when Gabriel Kuhn will come and talk about the book. More about that event
here.
