His first major published work, it explores themes of addiction, drug culture, and the way addicts are treated in society; it is one of the first works to deal with these topics in modern times. It was controversial in its time for its overall positive depiction of the pleasure of opium, although De Quincey's detailed depiction of its effects was praised for raising awareness of the impact of the drug. It is considered widely influential in the fields of abnormal psychology and addiction counseling. The opera Symphonie Fantastique by Berlioz was loosely based on De Quincey's memoir.* A NEAR VG+ copy with some cover age reducing it to ACC. No dust jacket so boards faded.*.

Although the novel was first published in 1859, it has remained in print, with numerous editions released over the years, including the 1973 edition.## ## The novel is set in the rural landscape of Hayslope and revolves around the life of Adam Bede, a stalwart Saxon character. The story is charged with outer dramas of seduction and betrayal and inner dramas of moral growth and redemption. It depicts the tragic tale of Hetty Sorrel, a thoughtless girl whom the thoughtless strayer, Captain Donnithorne, seduces. When Hetty is jailed for murder, Adam is distraught and believes that Captain Donnithorne lured her away from their upcoming marriage.## ## George Eliot, the pen name of Mary Ann Evans, was a well-published and highly respected scholar of her time.
