Vale of Pewsey: Psychedelic Press, 2024.“Cobweb of Trips is a literary history of psychedelics that catches a sublime aesthetic weaving its way through mid-twentieth century Britain and beyond – one which asks how early experimenters sought to find a role for psychedelics in society. Spinning a psychospiritual thread from literature and the history of medicine, this story brings to light how the question of psychedelics, and the trips people had, were animated by the eras cultural transformations.

In Search of Smiles: LSD, Operation Julie and Beyond
AU$85.00 Read MoreAdd to cartAndy Roberts
London: Psychedelic Press, 2023.“The life of Alston Hughes, aka Smiles, is an extraordinary journey through Britain’s counterculture and illicit drug networks in the late twentieth century. A key figure in the Microdot Gang conspiracy, Smiles shifted millions of doses of LSD before being arrested in 1977 by Operation Julie — the police investigation which unearthed what was then the largest LSD manufacturing and distribution operation of its kind. Based on a series of interviews, Andy Roberts’ In Search of Smiles is an enthralling folkloric biography of a life lived to the full, and a culture pushed to the edge. From a tough upbringing in postwar Manchester, to free festivals, hashish smuggling, and travels to South Asia, Smiles’ cat and mouse adventure with the authorities weaves through an intimate portrayal of his life, relationships, and community in the village of Llanddewi Brefi and beyond.” (publisher’s blurb)
