"In his new memoir, actor Charlie Sheen opens up about his tumultuous life as one of Hollywood's most notorious figures. The Book of Sheen, released on 9 September, documents the 60-year-old's various drug and sex scandals, as well as his time as one of the industry's highest-paid actors. Born into Hollywood royalty, Sheen and his brother Emilio Estevez had an unconventional childhood, growing up on movie sets alongside stars like Marlon Brando, Sophia Loren, and O.J. Simpson. Sheen's issues with alcohol and drugs were present from an early age but morphed into a dangerous addiction when he turned his talents to acting. His career has been the topic of tabloid speculation for decades, but arguably peaked during his infamous dismissal from the Emmy award-winning sitcom Two and a Half Men in 2011. Now sober, Sheen reflects on his life and troubles in this honest book."
