Back From the Void by Zoe 7. All about his experiment's with smoking salvia divinorum at the peak of the ayahuasca journey. That's not all he is also using mind machines to stimulate his brain during these experiments. Combining Ayahuasca, Salvia, and the hemospheric mind machines has allowed him to discover a whole new level of reality never documented before that he calls Zenith 7. I highly reccomend this book to all psychonauts.

Juggling a bunch of books now, not only DH Lawrence's The Lost Girl but also Steinbeck's The Winter of Our Discontent as well as a couple technical books. Finished the Tank Girl collection at least, hah!

Friedman's "Capitalism and Freedom."

I just purchased last night "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald (for a re-read) and "The Sirens of Titans" by Kurt Vonnegut.

The winter of our discontent is amazing.

Any aldous huxley, also top shelf. I loves me some Island.

I'm about to start Down and Out in Paris and London.

Jumped in a river, what did I see?
Black eyed angels swimming with me
Moon full of stars and astral cars, all the figures I used to see
All my lovers were there with me
All my past and all my futures
We went to heaven in a little rowboat
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt

A Star called Henry by Roddy Doyle.

About an abandoned Irish boy growing up in the Dublin slums. And is a rebel soldier basically his whole life.

Pretty Good.

I didn't know Eugenides wrote that. I recently read Middlesex and thought it was very good. I would recommend it to any serious reader.

How is that?

Huge Pynchon fan.




Staggeringly good. I'm not yet deep into it but I'm getting the feeling it's going to be right up there with Gravity's Rainbow. I ran into a literature friend the other day and he was half into it and very excited. He wanted to tell me all kinds of stuff about it but stopped himself before I had to. He was struggling though. That's always a good sign.




Have you read Mason and Dixon?

Everyone I know who has read both prefers Middlesex so I'm very excited to read it.

How is that?

Tom Robbins is in my top 5 authors. Haven't gotten around to reading Fierce Invalids though.

I've read every Tom Robbins book, which kind of sucks, considering he's in my top 5 as well and I've got nothing left to discover. He's fairly old, too, who knows how many he has left in him..

Just got finished with "Stranger In A Strange Land" by Robert Heinlein, and I'm reading "Snow Crash" by Neal Stepehenson right now. It's awesome so far, but I'm only about 100 pages deep.

The Heinlein book was pretty far out but I thoroughly enjoyed it, especially in the last 5 pages or so..

it's one of my least favourite books of his, although still typical robbins and entertaining enough.

read everything by him except this one, which i believe is his newest

It's his newest fiction book. His newest book is Wild Ducks Flying Backwards. A collection of articles and essays.

My favorite of his that I've read so far is Skinny Legs and All.

I need to re-read Even Cowgirls Get the Blues 'cause I read that along time ago and can't remember a thing.

There's one book newer than Fierce Invalids - Villa Incognito, which actually has a character in common with Fierce Invalids.
