FOUCAULT IN CALIFORNIA, SIMEON WADE

Imagine an afternoon in the California desert, a sky dotted with stars, the finest classical music, just the right amount of LSD, and one of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century. The true story of the night the great philosopher took acid and discovered Truth.

This book tells the story of the "most important experience" of Michel Foucault's life, narrated by those who guided him through a night many considered legendary, a night that marked a personal revolution for Foucault. It was a journey that forever changed the French thinker, so much so that it prompted him to rewrite his masterpiece, The History of Sexuality.

After thirty years inside a box, the testimony of that mystical experience has taken shape, becoming a book. Between yoga sessions, reflections on human nature, confessions, and visions, Foucault in California is a chronicle of journeys, a philosophical dialogue, and a queer coming-of-age story. A dizzying and extravagant voyage that demonstrates how the most varied paths can lead to Truth. A hallucinatory journey.
