Perilous Passage - Terry Wilson - Bog

Perilous Passage is an account of Terry Wilson¿s lifetime apprenticeship under the master shamanic practitioner, Brion Gysin, the hidden master of the avant-garde, of whom William Burroughs said, ¿He is the only man I respect.¿ The book focuses on events as they developed just prior to and after Gysin¿s death in 1986 and details the extreme psychic `Third Mind¿ eff ects known as `The Process.¿ Perilous Passage is a cautionary tale about the uses and abuses of power, a paranoid espionage thriller that includes transcribed audio hallucinations, notes, cutups, interview format, and collaged material. Like Gysin and Burroughs, Wilson treats language itself as a parasitic invader which must be resisted, broken up and reassembled. This book is about how Gysin¿s magic was passed on and is being carried into the future.
