Dreamland: The True Tale of America's Opiate Epidemic
by Sam Quinones
MASTERFUL. This is the best piece of nonfiction I have read. I wish I could personally thank Sam Quinones for writing this book.
It is thorough, harrowing, informative, heartbreaking, meticulous and gut-wrenching. This book is so important and it's a glorious bonus that it is so well-written. Quinones crafts this story carefully, somehow paying credence to every party involved. You feel unexpected compassion for the addicts and the dealers, understanding towards the over-prescribing doctors, agony for the families, and hope for the advocates and changemakers.
It's a #longread, but it's essential. Best book I've read this year. My heart is going to feel broken for a long time after reading the anecdotes woven in.
