Description

"Mad, 'I' Went" is a supreme work of meta-fiction. From the ecstatic and mystical realms of yogis and ancient Egyptian gods to the dreamspace of the insane, from pornographic paintings in Soho galleries to Christ on a UFO, author and character and reader mesh and switch places time and again in this dense psychedelic journey which purposely breaks contract with the reader, but at the same time offers him a new contract in which his ideas of what a book is and should be are forever altered. The wordplay here is intense and encourages the reader to go between the lines, beneath the surface, to draw connections and make inferences. Slow careful reading is rewarded generously, and successive rereadings, nearly a necessity, allow the reader to discover new nooks and crannies of meaning somehow overlooked last time. After "Mad, 'I' Went", space travel will be unnecessary and ink will become a controlled substance.
