About this product

Product Information

'I m going to tell the truth', I said suddenly, 'about what we did and why, and what it did to us.' At thirteen Horatio Clare was a boarder at a boy's public school, a privileged member of an apparently blessed generation. A rebel - one of those who detested the system, who thought it not just fun but right to break its laws - he was expelled for smoking dope. He became one of the thousands who gleefully ignored the warnings and set out, in search of experience and intensity, to slalom on the slippery slope. He was a truant in its original sense: one who beggars himself through choice, not necessity. From university campuses to the rooftops of New York; from Brixton basements to fear and loathing in Mid Devon, through psychosis, mania and depression, from sanity to madness and back again, this is a portrait drawn from a generation that turned to drugs. And it is a search for understanding: why do we do these things, and what do they do to us? What were we looking for and what did we find?

  • Perfect.

    Repeat purchase, a title/writer I garner possessively AND buy for others - over many years now, since first hearing him ( mellifluous voice, wonderful ) on a bbc radio series about time he spent with the underwater gendarmes of the Seine. It's still available, but this site forbade my including the link.
