I was wondering if anyone had recommendations on good books/movies about drug use. I saw a similar thread on this but I don't remember where exactly. To elaborate I really enjoyed "Less Than Zero" by Brett Easton Ellis, and have yet to find a book that captures that is as enthralling of a depiction about drug culture since then. I have read/seen the basics such as Requiem For A Dream, Trainspotting, Blow and Cocaine Cowboys, and am looking for pieces of work that equally stress the cultural aspects of the drug use if that makes since. I found that Requiem in particular was too highly sensationalized.
I myself am actually working on a novel inspired by Ellis that I posted over in the "Words" section of the forum; if anyone is interested in offering feedback please feel free to check it out over there.
EDIT: I just found the megathread on videos/documentaries on drug culture, so lets keep this limited to literature
