All of these essays focus on cocaine, and they cover a varied spectrum, from historical overviews (reminding us that Queen Victoria used it and it was an ingredient in the original Coca-Cola) to Carrie Fisher's anguished story of her addiction and recovery. Writers include Stephen King, Brett Easton Ellis, Jay McInerney, William Burroughs, Miles Davis, and Arthur Conan Doyle. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
