BACK COVER #
This is a limited edition of Miserable Miracle by the great French poet & painter, Henri Michaux. Very beautifully translated by Louise Varese, this book records in words and drawings the poet's profound experience with mescaline, the hallucinogen which Michaux described as a drug that "demystifes," unmasking the mind and its secrets and the secrets of consciousness itself.
