As a songwriter and someone fascinated with, and deeply in love with, wordplay, I'm ashamed to reveal my complete ignorance of Robert Hunter. My new-found fascination with psychedelics makes this even more pronounced.
You may instruct me on my penance.
Other than that, I am going to track down the book.
He's certainly worth a read, though at times I thought the collection was a bit self-aware. But, then, he is Robert Hunter! Let me know if you find it - I had a copy years ago I picked up from a bookstore in Chapel Hill, NC. It sat barely revisited on a shelf and when I relocated to the UK I sold it to a used book store. I remember the guy perusing my books was really keen to pick it up - along with Jay Stevens's Storming Heaven: LSD and the American Dream. I've replaced that one (a BRILLIANT read detailing this most important part of history), but haven't found the Hunter yet.
