De Quincey was a well-known English essayist and literary critic, and his memoir is regarded as a landmark work in the history of drug addiction literature. In the book, he describes how he first became addicted to opium, initially as a means of managing chronic pain. He then details the physical and psychological effects of his addiction, including vivid dreams and hallucinations. De Quincey also provides a detailed account of the social and cultural context of opium use in 19th century England, including the widespread use of laudanum, a preparation of opium in alcohol. "Confessions of an English Opium-Eater" has been praised for its poetic style and its insights into the nature of addiction. The book has had a significant influence on later drug addiction literature, including the works of writers such as William S. Burroughs and Charles Bukowski.
