English term

reduced him to an incoherent mess

English to Italian Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Contesto:

The entire journey back, Rick had become more obnoxious by the minute. At first, he’d just made lewd comments, something which both agents were used to. But the liquor in his system had slowly reduced him to an incoherent mess.

Mia proposta: "l’alcol che aveva in corpo lo rendeva illogico e scombinato/illogico e confuso". Cerco soluzioni migliori! grazie!
