In this gripping collection, Heroin's Harbour, Goldfinger offers usan intimate look at the world of drug addiction, as the "body, soul, and mind[are] interlocked in heroin hypnosis." Told in three parts, as the protagonistdescends into the deeper grip of addiction, he wonders "what decision wasit...that made it too late to turn back." The euphoria of the high is followedby a cascade of loss, betrayal, jail, armed robbery, near death experiences, broken relationships, terrifying bouts of withdrawal, arrest warrants, drugdealing, and death of loved ones. Even when he vows to quit, he is hauntedby his addiction as he describes "the junk called to me and it knew my name"and falls back into the "dance with the poison dust of incoherent dreams."As the drugs, like reptiles, slither into the corners of his mind, he knows thateven after years of being clean, he will never be totally free.
