A rare non-fiction 4 star read for me. As usual, I find Huxley’s work compelling and, to use his word, transporting. A great perspective on the use of psychedelics and hallucinogens. I can see how Huxley inspired so many to explore the mind’s “antipodes”. Heaven and Hell is a great addition to this work and provides a compelling insight to Huxley’s speculations and ruminations on religion and spirituality. You get a sense from him that he was exploring these options with questions but an open mind to possibility, a perspective that is refreshing in the intellectual and academic community. This works continues to prove Huxley to be one of my favorite writers of all time (fortunate for me that he was so prolific).
