Breaking Open the Head by Daniel Pinchbeck is blowing my mind to smithereens right this second! If you haven't heard of this book, it played a huge part inspiring Gaspar Noé's Enter the void, of which I am a massive fan. It's an informed exploration of the history and culture of psychedelic drug use (with revealing insights into its alienating nature within the conventions of modern western culture) as well as the documentation of transcendent and terrifying personal experiences of Pinchbeck himself. I'm 20 pages in and I have never been this enthralled, being slammed by such sagacious philosophies I must now BROOD over. .
