Confessions of an English Opium Eater - Hardcover

This is a beautiful book that appears unread: Decorated hard boards; 77 pages; crisp binding; square corners; no marks; no chips or tears; text block is bright and clean; first Heritage Press edition; The Sandglass is inclusive; slipcase displays tanning on perimeter and VERY gently bumped bottom corner. "The first major work De Quincey published, it explores themes of addiction, drug culture, and the way addicts are treated in society; it is one of the first works to deal with these topics in modern times."
