Read by Dylan Baker

The riches-to-rags true story of an advertising executive who had it all, then lost it all-and was finally redeemed by his new job, and his twenty-eight-year-old boss, at Starbucks.

“In the best tradition of The New Yorker, How Starbucks Saved My Life is one great read.”
The Wall Street Journal

“An intriguing look behind the counter of one of the world’s most recognizable brands.”
The Christian Science Monitor

How Starbucks Saved My Life works as an interesting memoir of one man’s transformation. But it could also work as a wake-up call to corporate America.”
Minneapolis Star Tribune
