Nice Jewish Felon

As the black sheep of a prominent family, author Michael Eliot Mehler endures a twisted, dysfunctional childhood. At the age of eleven he is molested, causing him to have thoughts of suicide. His overbearing mother's insistence on therapy leads him to a lifetime of analysis and does little to curb his tendency toward self-destruction.

When he becomes an adult, Mehler embarks on a career of crime. His glitzy, gutsy world includes a tumultuous relationship with an exotic dancer, his friendship with the former alleged mob boss of the Bonanno/Massino crime family, and his federal court case involving his job, incarceration, and probation. Through it all, Mehler's drug of choice is to abuse the people for whom he cares the most.

As Mehler's personality disorder becomes more apparent and threatening, the love of Mehler's dog, Madison, forces him to examine his life. Nice Jewish Felon tells Mehler's compelling story with brutal honesty and gripping emotion.
