            Alcoholism is one of the core issues in the book The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. In this book three of the protagonist’s friends/ relatives are killed because of alcohol and many more have problems with drinking and Alcoholism. Alcoholism is an addiction to alcoholic beverages. It is a big problem on Indian Reservation, like in the book. Alcohol has bad effects on many parts of the body. On Earth 140million or more have a dependency on alcohol.  This topic, alcoholism, is a serious issue in almost every part of the world, even in the town where I live.
