The Notebook of an English Opium-Eater is a memoir written by Thomas De Quincey, detailing his experiences with opium addiction. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part describing De Quincey's early life and the circumstances that led to his addiction. The second part is a series of essays on various topics, including opium usage, literature, and philosophy. Throughout the book, De Quincey reflects on the pleasures and pains of opium use, as well as its effects on his physical and mental health. He also discusses the societal attitudes towards drug use and addiction during his time, and offers insights into the human condition through his personal experiences. The Notebook of an English Opium-Eater is a seminal work in the history of addiction literature and a fascinating exploration of the mind of an addict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
