I read it first, many years ago, while under the residual influence of an herbal inhalent and found the somewhat passive experience near-psychedelic. It's almost unique in my experience reading prose ... a very right-brained reading experience akin to reading e.e.cummings. It's not reading about but more like being Leopold - surrendering to that alternative consciousness. (It's not something one can do while reading with one's fingertip.)
