1963002259NY: The Orion Press 1963. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. First English-language edition of this book documenting the "explorations among drugs" of the sui generis French poet and visual artist. Henri Michaux 1899-1984 occupies an interesting place in drug literature. He didn't begin using hallucinogens until his 50s experimented heavily for a decade and then abandoned the practice abruptly at the recommendation of his doctor. In this hybrid work of prose and poetry he describes the sensations and thoughts prompted by psilocybin mescaline and marijuana as well as his extrapolations about the relationship between the drug state and mental illness. His writing strikes an effective balance between interiority and clinical detachment particularly effective at conveying the experiential complexity of the psychedelic state.

Translated by Haakon Chevalier. 8vo; gray cloth stamped in white and yellow on front board and spine; black topstain; dust jacket. 230pp. Light sunning and soiling to boards; offsetting to endpapers; light spotting/soiling to fore-edge; mild musty odor.

1963356741New York: The Orion Press 1963. First U.S. Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Large 8vo 9" - 10. Sturdy attractive tightly bound hardcover clean bright interior lightly worn and soiled grey cloth covers still sharp white and gold lettering to front cover and spine minimal rubbing to extremities and some foxing to page edges. First English Edition having been translated from the 1961 original French edition by Haakon Chevalier. Michaux's important treatise investigates his "explorations among drugs." The poet and visual artist Henri Michaux 1899-1984 makes here an important contribution to drug literature. His own personal experimentation with psychedelics began in his own 50s but then he ceased drug-taking before taking them up again a decade or so later in therapeutic mode. The present tome blends prose and poetry analysis of his experience with psilocybin mescaline and marijuana. He opines too as did Aldous Huxley on mental illness and possible curative functions of psychedelia. Michaux was Belgium-born. This was the first American edition. Later on in his career Michaux was associated with the so-called Tachiste movement in the 1940s and 1950s. Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of e.g. notes index and bibliography. 230 pp.Member I.O.B.A. C.B.A. and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes and for sets. The Orion Press, hardcover
