Dreamland: The True Tale of America's Opiate Epidemic by Sam Quinones

5.0

I agree with another reviewer who said this should be required reading for everyone. The sheer volume of information Quinones pored over and people he talked to is staggering. But it led to the most comprehensive examination of the "opioid epidemic" I've read. Anyone who struggles to understand how we got here, or what, exactly, is meant by opioid epidemic, must read this. Painstaking research and heartbreaking interviews from all sides of the issue are expertly intertwined. I finished this book sad, angry and with a little bit of hope. I'm concentrating on the hope.
