Diary of a Drug Fiend
by Aleister Crowley

Quote:
Amazon.com Editorial Review

Begins with the age old tale: boy gets wired on coke, boy meets girl, boy marries girl and goes off travelling with her through europe doing copious amounts of C. and H.

Eventually boy and girl end up more or less in the gutter, ready to commit suicide.

Enter King Lamus: Master Adept/Zen Master/Mentor/Father Figure to rescue them both by helping them to discover their True Will, thereby curing them entirely of their addictions.

t is King Lamus' considered opinion that drugs are tools, to be used wisely and with a specific purpose in mind, going on to make the analogy that the best way to avoid drowning is to learn to swim-- not to avoid bodies of water.

An intriguing-- though possibly specious-- theory. Fun and entertaining read.
This book, from everything I tend to hear from credible sources, is purley fiction and it's rumored that Crowley died penniless and addicted to drugs. Still an interesting perspective on the whole thing and a fun read.
