Scribe acquires book on meth addiction expanded from ‘Saturday Paper’ article

Scribe has acquired world rights to The Ice Age: A Journey into Crystal Meth Addiction by freelance journalist Luke Williams, an expanded version of an article by Williams published in the Saturday Paper.

Scribe publisher Henry Rosenbloom described the book as ‘a vital, compelling first-person account that will combine memoir with reportage about a drug that has taken a ferocious grip on Australia’.

Scribe acquired the rights from Sheila Drummond at The Drummond Agency and will publish the book in 2015.
