"Wir, Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo" by "Christiane F", memoir of a teenage heroin addict and prostitute, was a massive bestseller in Europe and is now a set text in German schools.
Bahnhof Zoo was, until recently, Berlin's central railway station. A kind of equivalent (in more ways than one) to London's King's Cross...
Of course my local library doesn't have it. So I'm going to have to order it through a bookshop and plough through the text in German. I asked my druggieworker Maple Syrup, who is Italiana how she learned English and she said reading books is the best way.
For some reason every section except Part 1 is ENGLISH SUBTITLED ~ wahey!

The overlap comes in at about 9 and a half minutes, just before the end, when she's whipping Stotter Max with the flyswatter:

Thanks for sharing that video. The more that people can be made aware of the problem the more harm reduction programs might be started. Thank you.

I think this is the best film about heroin addiction I have seen by a long way. Far better than Requiem for a Dream, Trainspotting, Drugstore Cowboy or any of the others...
