Alice rejected his faith at a young age, only to return to it after he sobered up.
I share a similar story of returning to my faith, after wandering in the desert for a time. :)
Alice’s autobiography is entertaining and “easy reading”, but still a fascinating story of a man who had it all (famous friends, parties, women, etc.), but was ultimately miserable even BEFORE the “party ended.” Great anecdotes about Groucho Marx, Jack Benny (who loved Alice’s theatrics), and John Lennon.
Many of us return to the pews after spending time on those hard chairs in the church basement!
