Publisher Description
This incredible autobiography of Christiane F. provides a vivid portrait of teen friendship, drug abuse, and alienation in and around Berlin's notorious Zoo Station. Christiane's rapid descent into heroin abuse and prostitution is shocking, but the boredom, longing for acceptance, thrilling risks, and even her musical obsessions are familiar to everyone. Previously published in Germany and the US to critical acclaim, Zest's new translation includes original photographs of Christiane and her friends.

Honest & Educating
I recently watched the movie and thought about the book. I finally finished it and wow… This woman has gone through so much. Definitely worth the read, going to watch interviews now!
10/10
Amazing book! Really entertaining and there is never a boring scene. You really learn a lot from this book. Drugs are not romanticized at all like in other books and portrays the harsh and dirty
reality of going through addiction.
