Cotton Comes to Holland: Sex, Drugs, and a Journey to Sacred Mushrooms
From the author of Sol on Ice comes Cotton Comes to Holland, an exploration of the middle way between drug enthusiasm and drug phobia. Rather than experiencing the transformative effects of hallucinogens under the watchful eyes of shamans in the Amazon rainforest, this time TR is alone visiting the Netherlands with only the intentions to attend an academic conference, present a paper, and maybe see a little of Amsterdam. However, while in Holland, TR discovers by chance psilocybin mushrooms and experiences their effects that open the doors of perception to personal insights and growth. Thus, TR learns that there is far more to Holland than canals, windmills, and tulips. Cotton Comes to Holland is also a meditation on Dutch society, its seemingly trusting baseline, social equality, and “harm reduction” policy toward prostitution and drugs. Cotton Comes to Holland is by no means a promotion or endorsement of these attitudes; rather it is simply the observations and reflections of one man.
