Summary

Thomas de Quincey: Confessions of a Connoisseur of Opium

The events recorded in the Preparatory Confessions fall within a period which began more than and ended less than nineteen years ago: therefore, due to the common reckoning of dates, many events may indistinctly refer to a space of eighteen or nineteen years; and as the notes and reminder of this story were first made about last Christmas, it seemed most natural that in all cases the earlier date should be preferred. In the haste to put the story together, though several months had then elapsed, that date was everywhere retained: and in many cases, perhaps, it leads to no, or no, important error. But at the same time, namely, when the writer speaks of his birthday, this acceptance of a single date led to an undoubted inaccuracy of a whole year: for it was precisely at the time of composition that the nineteenth year from the beginning of the whole period had completely completed. That is why I think it is worth mentioning that the period of the story falls between the early part of July 1802 and the beginning or middle of March 1803.
