Confessions of an English Opium-Eater by Thomas de Quincey

This is something which I was reading in parallel to other books during commuting.

It is marked as a classic or the firs one in drug addiction writing but this doesn't go very far beyond the clouds, memory of some moments, general apathy, and all the senseless ideas which keep people hooked to an addictive substance.

This is more like a self-aggrandizement statement rather than a record of experiences.

Not worth a read even if it so small.

Peace
