      - The book of Sheen : a memoir / by Sheen, Charlie,author.; 
 "For the first time, Charlie Sheen -- the star of Platoon, Wall Street, Major League, and Two and a Half Men -- writes the story of his extraordinary life in an unfiltered memoir. "We can live the stories or hear about them later from others. I choose the former." Charlie Sheen should not be alive to write this book. But in The Book of Sheen, the movie and TV star, who has defied the odds, finally presents his story, in his own words. Charlie Sheen was born the third of four children to actor Martin Sheen and his wife, Janet. He grew up on film sets -- from his father's all over the world to his own in Malibu. There, he made ambitious Super 8s, with a roster of friends who went on to become household names, including his brother Emilio, Sean and Chris Penn, and the Lowe brothers. Sheen broke into movies in the 1980s, playing a hoodlum in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, a young soldier in Platoon, and an ethically compromised trader in Wall Street. But somewhere along the way, despite a successful transition to TV leading man in Spin City and Two and a Half Men, Sheen descended into a vortex of extracurricular activities. Now sober, Sheen delivers a clear-eyed narrative of his highs and lows with humor, candor, and a vivid, captivating writing style that is uniquely his. The Book of Sheen reads like a farfetched, overstuffed novel of Hollywood life -- yet it is all true"--Dust jacket flap.
