We've all experienced the sudden transition from a deep sleep to a state of disorientation, where our dreams take us to desolate deserts and confrontational demons. The aftermath is a lingering hangover, characterized by a mouthful of sand, a throbbing head, and a sense of discomfort. Courageous journalist Shaughnessy Bishop-Stall has ventured to the front lines of humanity's enduring battle against hangovers, determined to uncover the most effective methods for mitigating the consequences of a night of indulgence, short of abstaining from alcohol altogether.

Hangovers have plagued humankind since the dawn of civilization, offering ample time for remedies to be devised. However, in the modern era of 2018, our understanding of hangovers remains limited, and even less is known about their cure. Hungover aims to cut through the haze of rumors and myths, providing a comprehensive exploration of various remedies. From the unconventional practice of polar bear swims to the modern approach of saline IV drips, Bishop-Stall delves into a range of solutions to alleviate the symptoms of a hangover.

Along the way, Bishop-Stall shares captivating stories from humanity's complex relationship with alcohol, drawing from the wisdom of figures such as Kingsley Amis and a man in a pub. The book offers a wealth of advice and insights, shedding light on the science behind hangovers and providing practical tips for recovering from a night of excess. Whether you're a seasoned drinker or a occasional indulger, Hungover is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to navigate the aftermath of a night of revelry with greater clarity and comfort.
