Summary
The critically acclaimed novelist and social critic Aldous Huxley describes his personal experimentation with the drug mescaline and explores the nature of visionary experience. The title of this classic comes from William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell: “If the doors of perception were cleansed, every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern.”

He had such an amazing soul, strong conviction to his beliefs and he was intelligent beyond accurate recognition. I’m glad to have been introduced to his history by someone I whole heartedly trust with high levels of knowledge and a soothing tone in her voice. Thank you God I appreciate everything you do for me. I am in your image. -Corey Chuck
