The novel is set in Australia. It moves from the fast-pace and heroin-induced cities to the quietness of the country. The narrator and Candy start out in Sydney with their heroin addiction. They don't stay there long and move to Melbourne. Melbourne is the city where all the addiction begins a deep spiral downward and sets up the heroin cycle for the entire novel and years of their life. They move from apartment to apartment due to not paying rent or bills.
