I read that book as well and it was pretty clear they wanted people to take it without exactly knowing what they were getting into; at least, it escalated to that point. They being Ken Kesey and his group more so than the Dead. One of the core bus riders eventually quit because he saw it as non consensual dosing. That was my takeaway anyway - there is a good amount of ambiguity in the way the book is written.
- morkalork 2y agoThere are some events in the book that are reported by other writers and the difference in interpretation is uh not small.
