Description

Originally published in 1963, The Yage Letters: Redux documents William S. Burroughs’ 1950s travels through South America in search of yage (ayahuasca), a powerful hallucinogenic plant. This collaborative work with Allen Ginsberg, presented in an epistolary format, explores altered states of consciousness, shamanic rituals, and their transformative experiences. This updated edition includes Ginsberg’s reflections on psychedelics and additional material, offering a comprehensive look into their profound and often challenging journey.
