The Junkyard...edited by Marsha Hunt...true stories written by inmates of Dublins Mountjoy Prison.
Matters of Substance...cant remember who wrote it but a very good look at all drug types and addiction...medical type reading but never boring..a good un.

Last but not least...Junky...by William Burroughs...a must read for anyone interested in heroin and addiction....very cutting edge when 1st.published .i.e early 50s...but charts the characters addiction thru late 40s to early 50s in the U.S...strongly recc....youd prob.read it in a day..if nipper was quiet.

Just looked for the joy but not had any joy with that one. No one selling it on ebay :-(
ok--so im a little rusty with computers--hoiw exactly does e-bay work--???
You take pictures of what you want to sell and then a little infor then people bid for things. Or you can have a buy it now price where people will just buy it outright then you post it to them. You have what is called a paypal account which people can send money through...hey presto. Have a go..its really addictive!! lol Hence why I have no money..lol. Just bought my daughter a pink dior dress for a party she is going too. You can get many designer things at half the price....some new and some things used!!

Burroughs was a real piece of work that guy........I couldn't get through Naked Lunch............the man was weirder than me and that don't sit well.
Herman, what a name........and PLEASE don't tell me that.......now I gotta look it up.........breaks my heart even knowing what it is about.
"Heroin Diaries" was a good book........but that movie........stop it.Bunny Rocker, look up Erowid..........or even google famous heroin addicts......you can read Billie Holiday's autobiography but they say Billie lied like a rug...imagine that a heroin addict telling a lie, but Billie she suffered.........Anita O'Day had a book out but it's hard to get.........I couldn't get it.
Tons out there, but I think Davey bought them all up.
