    Can someone please tell me the premise of this book? Is it non-fiction? What is it? I heard it was awesome and I would like to read it but I dont know anything about it. Thoughts?

    i have read it and thought it was very well written, it's hard to say it was good 'cos of the theme but it was good!
    I thought it was based on the authors actual experiences. Hang on, I've got it somewhere. I'll dig it out.

    Yeah, I read that one. It's great. It's really great. And It was based on William S. Burrough Experience with heroin. Burrough is awesome with details, I love him.

    O.K I found the book, and yes it is based on his experiences of heroine abuse in the 1950's.
