Black Tar: For the Love of Heroin
Black Tar is an auto-biographical look at the use of heroin and the toll it takes on the addict and his surroundings. It is written from an addict's perspective and details the day to day existence of one junkie as he lives from fix to fix and watches as his life spirals out of control. From alcohol, pills and cocaine to heroin. His attempts to free himself and live a sober life are always half hearted at best and so his mounting drug use destroys his life, his job and any hope he might have of enjoying a family. As the years pass heroin addiction forces him to live hand to mouth, always one step away from being unemployed and living on the streets as an addicted vagrant. In this smack tinted world the extremes are overdose and withdrawal and our leading man suffers through his share of both. In the end he finds himself dangling between the fix that will kill him and the sober life he so desperately needs.
