Psychedelic New York: A History of LSD in the City Volume 6 Elcock Chris
As LSD moves towards the medical mainstream, it continues to evoke powerful memories of the psychedelic sixties and west coast counterculture. A major hub for the production and consumption of LSD and other hallucinogenic drugs, New York spawned a unique psychedelic culture that reverberated through the city, from psychoanalytic circles to artists' studios, Greenwich Village to Central Park. In this lively account, Chris Elcock follows a different branch of psychedelic history - one that is sprawling, layered, and centred on New York City.
Elcock recounts stories of New Yorkers Based on years of archival research, interviews with former acid heads, and a range of cultural artifacts, Psychedelic New York shows how the postwar city was at the forefront of LSD medical research, the burgeoning of psychedelic art, drug-accompanied spiritual seeking, and a proliferation of drug subcultures.
