AUTHOR

Hodgson, Barbara

SUMMARY

"Of special note is the cover of a 1958 edition of Claude Farrre's 1904 novel BLACK OPIUM; it features a naked, voluptuous blonde rising out of the smoke of an opium pipe. The image is both absurd and sad, for opium use decreases the sex drive. But then again, as Hodgson notes in her insightful book, the pull of the drug is anything but logical."Hodgson, Barbara is the author of 'Opium A Portrait of the Heavenly Demon', published 2004 under ISBN 9781553650584 and ISBN 1553650581.
