Burrough’s classic \u003ci\u003eJunky\u003c\/i\u003e, the new novel \u003ci\u003eDrugs\u003c\/i\u003e is the sparse, beautifully unassuming account of one man’s life of drug use.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e As Robert Crumb, who illustrated the book jacket, says,\u003cbr\u003e “J.  R. Helton really speaks to me—starkly honest, darkly funny, acutely  observant, and captures the tragic absurdity of human life. . . . [H]e’s  right up there with the best of them.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This  fictionalized memoir is told in masterfully wry, Spartan prose with no  apologies for a drug-user’s lifestyle, and instead looks back on it with  clever insight and an appreciation for everything felt and observed. With self-awareness and conviction, Helton avoids the sensationalist commentary so common to drug memoirs and instead favors the honest details, the effects of each drug on his body and on his soul. The  result is a sincerely told tale of adventure, debauchery, and absurdity.","brand":"Seven Stories Press","offers":[{"title":"US - Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46836180353251,"sku":"DTRPRUS-9781609804015","price":102.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1778\/4925\/files\/9781609804015.jpg?v=1752448746","url":"https:\/\/buybookbook.com\/zh\/products\/9781609804015","provider":"買書書 BuyBookBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
