Limited. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 0720608929 Holograph Edition # 22 of 26 copies only, signed with a paragraph of the book hand-written by the author on the title page; the book is dated 1995 and was orignally sold by Waterstones Signed Editions; bright dustjacket, blue binding, silver lettering, 136 pages, endpaper photo from an image by Andre Breton. Reed recounts his personal experience of long-term tranquilliser dependency, traumatic breakdown and withdrawal, at the same time exploring the hallucinated topography which has come to represent his own highly individual poetic territory. Jeremy Reed had a ten-year addiction and in this tell-all book he discusses his addiction and his inner terrors of withdrawal. Reed managed to withdraw without hospitalization: his account will be valuable to other patients, social workers, and doctors. He also delves into the literature of Anna Kavan, Rimbaud, Baudelaire and other authors relating to drug addiction experiences (Book ref. 1934 )  £ 40.00
