Dopefiend

By: Donald Goines

Narrated by: Kevin Kenerly

The shocking nightmare story of a black heroin addict

Trapped in the festering sore of a major American ghetto, a young man and his girlfriend - both attractive, talented, and full of promise - are inexorably pulled into the living death of the hardcore junkie. It is a horrifying world where addicts will do anything to get their next fix.

For 23 years of his young life, Donald Goines lived in the dark, despair-ridden world of the junkie. It started while he was doing military service in Korea and ended with his murder in his late 30s. He had worked up to a hundred-dollars-a-day habit - and out of the agonizing hell came Dopefiend.

Good Read!

A "Page Turner!" Excellent narration. Great voice changes. Story is as relavant today as it was in the 1970's.

love this book

love Donald's books. Listening to it was really nice. the person thatread it off made it really nice to listen to

awesome

I have always loved this book. I have read it at least 5 times over, starting when I was about 15 yrs old. it is gritty & raw to say the least. hearing it narrated was an absolute treat!! I love Donald Goines! The narrator was fantastic! Well done!

Disturbing world of Drugs

The book was interesting enough, it's an old book told at a different time but a lot is still relevant. The story keeps you in engaged but three are soft vet disturbing parts and acts. Be prepared for very explicit disgusting acts of human depravity.

Wow

Donald Goines has done it again superb storytelling!! You feel as if you are right in the moment with these characters! Sad 😢 but life unfortunately!
