1956 Heaven & Hell
What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper
First edition. A companion volume to Huxley's challenging book 'The Doors of Perception', an autobiographical work published in 1954 which elaborates on his psychedelic experience under the influence of mescaline in May 1953. Heaven and Hell follows as a philosophical essay that discusses the relationship between bright, colorful objects, geometric designs, psychoactives, art, and profound experience. Huxley uses the term antipodes to describe the "regions of the mind" that one can reach via meditation, vitamin deficiencies, self-flagellation, fasting, sleep deprivation, or with the aid of chemical substances like LSD or mescaline. Written by Aldous Leonard Huxley, an English writer and philosopher.
