Ixtlan is one of my favorite books ever. I read it originally as a college student, and must say drugs as an avenue for discovery was the last thing I got from the book. Interupting routines, living as if death was always at ones left shoulder etc, were fascinating new ways of viewing the world, and made me stop and think about how much of ones life was lived robotically, habitually. To me, it was a book about waking up to ones own life, certainly not about drugs or their abuse. Your take is, obviously, different. Different strokes.....
