• From Lit: A Memoir (2009)

  Wreaths make me think of Christmas, skinny Betty says. That is my least favorite time of year. I meant gravestones. You find them on gravestones, Tina says. Maybe they want us all dead, Pam says. Well the feeling’s mutual. I hate those bitches. Which ones? I want to know. All of them. I say, What’s not to like? They’re nothing if not nice. You’re like those people who fall in love with their kidnappers, Pam says. Like what’s-her-name. Who held up the bank. The rich bitch. Betty says, Patty Hearst. How many suicide attempts does everybody have? Tina blurts out. I have unlucky thirteen. People go around with their various numbers. I have only about half of one, I say. You’re bullshitting me, Tina says . A beacon of mental health, the Virgin Mary here, Pam says. One half-assed attempt. Well, I can beat that weak-assed shit. I have zero. There are some other motherfuckers I’d seriously like to kill, though. On the way back to the ward, Pam tugs my elbow, saying, I’ve got some contraband. Tell me it’s chocolate, I say, for that day’s brownies had vanished from the ward kitchen. Better than that, she says, and she draws from her sweatshirt pocket a small black Bic lighter. Then she whispers, I’ve also got a lightbulb in my room. What fun we’re meant to wreak with these items, I can’t figure out, but I’m feeling well enough to let the opaque opportunity slide.

  Mary reads over the letter while I stand stumped in the shine of it. They make you an officer of the university, she says. What’s that mean? You can charge drinks at the Faculty Club. Drinks? Club soda and coffee, I say. O.J. Iced tea . She’s still rubbing her belly with a pinched look on her face. She hands me the letter. What? I say. What aren’t you saying? That says you have to go to a meeting this Monday, Mary says. Have to go. It’s an all-day orientation. I know, I know. I get keys to my office. I get to meet the other scholars. I can’t wait. She’ll never let you go, she says, referring to my in-house shrink: Alice in Wonderland. That’s what even the nurses call her behind her back, based on the platinum hair she wears past her knees, despite being on the far side of forty. It flaps behind her like a ship’s wake, or she pushes it back using horrid headbands with bows big enough to stick on a birthday convertible. (My doc was on August holiday, or she might’ve vetoed Alice.) She barely lets you go to the drunks’ group in the detox on Tuesday. Escorted. Won’t I be out by then? Mary shrugs, adding, Maybe not. Alice in fucking Wonderland, I say. A passing doctor hushes me and nods toward the mailroom, where the shrink in question—tiny, humorless, and ruthlessly well groomed—is reviewing charts. It’s such a cliché to hate your shrink when you’re in the bin. (In truth, all of my other shrinks contributed heartily to saving my life.) Dr. Alice herself would claim I’m projecting a buried hatred of my own seductive, narcissistic mother. But even other doctors seem to stiffen at her presence in group, and her lack of humor is legend in these halls. No one ever sees her pancaked face risk the breach of smiling. She beckons me now, and I summon the bravado to flounce behind her to an office. She slips behind her desk. She’s wearing a peach-colored headband to match her Chanel suit. She’s a buyer of name brands, this one, no thrift shops for her . Sitting primly in the chair across from her, I try to dazzle her with modest confidence. She has a tendency to bring up penis envy every session, and I swear that this time, when she does, I’ll confess to my intense longing for a dick of my own, for in most places that pretend to value honesty, I’ve usually found that sucking up is an underrated virtue given how well it works. Reviewing my chart, she squirts a dollop of lotion into her hands and rubs them together with the untroubled air of a woman who’s never picked up a check and never gone to sleep without flossing. She says, You’re still refusing the sleeping medication? I’m sleeping so well, I say. I think all our talks are paying off.

  That first day I stood at the window of a dayroom looking down as the bus disgorged them. Shedding their coats and the clasped-on mittens that flapped from their coat sleeves, the women bumbled out. They dropped hats or pencils or keys or lunch boxes. One trying to find the end of her scarf turned around in a circle like a slow-motion cat chasing its tail. This halted the women behind her, a few of whom bumped into her and each other. As staff people herded them in, I felt my armpits grow damp. The faster ladies spilled into the room around me like kids lining up for a pony ride. A flat-faced woman with the severe and snaggled underbite of a bulldog stood introducing herself with a handshake before she sat. I’m Marion Pinski, she said. P like Polack Pinski. She wore a brown beret flat atop her head like nothing so much as a cow pie. Alongside her squeezed other women, whose heads seemed small as dolls’. Under narrow shoulders, their bodies went mountainously soft. And they were mushroom-pale, as if they’d been grown underground. It’s a shocking thing to face all at once so many kecked-up, genetically disadvantaged humans. In a country that values power and ease and symmetry, velocity and cunning, kinks in their genetic code had robbed them of currency. Somebody touched my foot. Looking down, I found a sandy-haired woman tugging on my boot buckle. Katie Butke, she introduced herself as. Katie was solid as a fireplug and clean as a boiled peanut, affable but unimpressed by the likes of me. Looking at her, I felt smart all of a sudden, also lucky. You could talk these women out of their bus tokens. Still, glad I’d dodged the bullet they’d caught almost implicated me in their handicap. (At the time I saw only their difficulties. Now I also marvel that they could with verve hug an individual they’d just gotten off the bus with, and that total strangers shampooed Katie’s red hair and rubbed lotion on her freckled arms.) I started off with Pablo Neruda and a thinly disguised Neruda imitator. Good poem vs. cliché. The staff people had warned me the ladies could get distracted and bored, but the Neruda snapped them to attention. Walking Around begins, It so happens I am sick of being a man…I am sick of my hair and my eyes and my teeth and my shadows…At one point he says, Still it would be marvelous to terrify a law clerk with a cut lily, or kill a nun with a blow on the ear. Kill a nun! Katie Butke called out—whether in outrage or enthusiasm, I couldn’t tell. The poem ends with wash on the line from which slow dirty tears are falling.

  A woman stands at the front, saying her higher power helped her through a family wedding without drinking, though her soused-up relatives tried to force all variety of cocktail down her gullet, and it’s all I can do not to bolt out the door. Higher power, my rosy red ass, I can hear my daddy saying, and Church is a trick on poor people. I look over at the classics prof, now giving the thumbs-up sign like she’s scored a touchdown, and I think, What fun-house land have I crossed into, where the rich seek the counsel of the poor? Any minute, some snake-handling preacher might well get up and start stomp-dancing while his underage wife passes a hat. I slather on more hand lotion and sit perched on the edge of my seat like a bird on a wire. The guy at the front calls on a lady in a bouclé Chanel suit, complete with gold buttons and long chains hanging down. She might’ve stepped from the pages of Town & Country magazine. She relates how she used to tuck her vodka bottle inside a turkey carcass stashed in the basement freezer. While cooking dinner, she’d run down and yank it out and guzzle a bit. And her family, who’d done two interventions, kept rifling laundry hampers and closets, looking to no avail for her stash. Then one night, she tells us in a demure voice, the frost had built up so deep she couldn’t midwife the bottle out, so she just upended the whole bird, guzzling out of it. She says, And that was my moment of clarity, thinking, Other people just don’t drink like this. Rather than scorn her like schoolmarms for the sin, the room roars—myself among them—while she gives a startled smile. And because I’ve never drained vodka from an icy bird, I think I’m nowhere near as bad as that crazy bitch. Another guy talks about burying bottles all over his mother’s yard before being dragged into rehab. Fresh out, he needed only to secret inside his Speedo bathing suit a plastic straw. Then he’d grab a towel and some tanning oil and step outside, saying he wanted to catch some rays. His mother would study him all day through the sliding door, totally flummoxed when he came crab-walking in—drunk and beet-red—at sundown. More laughter, and I hear myself join in since the company is more raucously alive than most dance clubs. Was it this same meeting where a man told the story of trying to hang himself? The rope was too green, and at dusk, his wife tilted open the garage door to find him twisting drunk, on tiptoes, half conscious. She cut him down, called him a bastard, and packed her bags. He then went into the kitchen and blew out the pilot light and stuffed towels around the edges of the room. He emptied a bottle of sleeping pills into his mouth and finished the last of the whiskey.

• From Synanon Kid: Book One: A Memoir of Growing Up in the Synanon Cult

  We had barely made it through the Scandinavian countries, the smiling blond dolls, with their headscarves, aproned dresses, and wooden shoes, waving at us and singing, “It’s a world of laughter / A world of tears / It’s a world of hope / And a world of fears... ” when Ray made a loud choking noise. He and Theresa were sitting in front of Sara and me. Alarmed, I leaned forward in my seat to see what was wrong with him. His shoulders shook and he dug into his pocket, producing one of his linen handkerchiefs, and he blew his nose loudly, exclaiming in the same choking voice, “This is so beautiful.” Theresa placed her hand on Ray’s arm, and he turned to give her a long sappy look. Sara snorted and I ducked my head, hoping this was the extent of his emotional outburst. We were on a kiddy ride for Christ’s sake! Just when I thought I couldn’t possibly like Ray any less, my feelings would drop to a new level of disdain. The thrill of leaving Synanon had worn off and now I found myself grappling with the fact that we were all at odds with each other. My desire for normalcy, plainness, the all-American life, a template of a 1950s-like lifestyle which I’d mentally molded from years of fantasizing, clashed with Ray and Theresa’s idea of searching for a spiritual utopia. When we returned to Santa Clara, we received the news that the people from the University of the Trees had accepted our family into their community. Ray and Theresa, after some discussion, accepted the invitation, much to the relief of both Sara and me. The commune seemed a great compromise. We would live in our own home. Sara and I could go to public school while Ray and Theresa got to take advantage of the weekly meditation groups, communication seminars, and potlucks with likeminded people. Best of all, Sara and I were not required to attend any of it. The commune offered our parents jobs. Ray went to work selling negative ion generators, and Theresa was placed in a secretarial position. Get Synanon Kid Grows Up Now! AcknowledgmentsFirst and foremost, I would like to thank my mother for helping me to tell this story. When I first began writing Synanon Kid in 2013, she generously spent many hours on the phone with me, answering all of my questions and sharing her perspective of our peculiar past. My children have all been wonderful in taking time to read several drafts and giving me valuable constructive criticism. In 2014, I contacted Paul Morantz, the attorney who litigated Synanon on multiple counts and who Chuck Dederich attempted to murder by ordering two Synanon men to place a rattle snake in his mailbox.
