R and R: A Flight Fare Story
AU$500 Read MoreAdd to cartKen Babbs
: Ken Babbs, 1984.Self-published short story by Merry Prankster and psychedelic icon Ken Babbs, featuring Marine helicopter pilots Huckelbee and Cochran on R&R at a Japanese brothel, the Five Hundred Club.

The present pamphlet is the only known separate printing of any portion of that manuscript, preserving a pre-publication text substantially different from the finished novel.

AU$1,500 Read MoreAdd to cartEugene G. O’Neill
New York: Boni and Liveright, 1921.First edition, first state binding, in the original pictorial jacket.

Gilpin and later by Paul Robeson in a role that helped establish his international stage reputation. A bold expressionist exploration of fear, power, and racial consciousness, the play remains a landmark text in both African-American theatrical history and the development of modern American drama. ATKINSON A 15-I-i.a. Also includes Diff’rent, a two-act study of sexual repression in a New England fishing village, and The Straw, a naturalistic drama drawn from O’Neill’s own experience in a tuberculosis sanatorium.

The Allure of Fungi
AU$50 Read MoreAdd to cartAlison Pouliot
Melbourne: CSIRO Publishing, 2022.“Although relatively little known, fungi provide the links between the various organisms and ecosystems that underpin our functioning planet. The Allure of Fungi presents fungi through multiple perspectives those of mycologists and ecologists, foragers and forayers, naturalists and farmers, aesthetes and artists, philosophers and Traditional Owners. It explores how a history of entrenched fears and misconceptions about fungi has led to their near absence in Australian ecological consciousness and biodiversity conservation. Through the combination of engaging text and stunning photography, the author reflects on how aesthetic, sensate experience deepened by scientific knowledge offers the best chance for understanding fungi, the forest and human interactions with them.”

Women and Psychedelics: Uncovering Invisible Voices
AU$40 Read MoreAdd to cartErika Dyck; Clancy Cavnar; Patrick Farrell; Ibrahim Gabriell; Beatriz C. Labate; Glauber Loures de Assis
Santa Fe and London: Synergetic Press, 2024.“This collection of short essays examines the place of women in the history of psychedelics. While some of the subjects are pioneers in their own right, the authors in this collection go beyond merely adding women to the past in psychedelic history, exploring some of the significant ways that women have contributed to psychedelic knowledge. Blending historical and anthropological approaches with a series of captivating interviews, this collection taps into women’s networks around the world throughout the 20th century. It reveals some of the sophisticated and creative ways women have influenced our understanding of psychedelics and how they will continue to protect these stories as we face our psychedelic future. Our collection intentionally moves beyond an American set of stories, teasing out networks in Latin America. This collection brings together authors from the Chacruna Institute and Chacruna Latinamerica to engage readers in conversations that move across time and place throughout the Americas. It is the first of its kind to balance non-English contributions through translation of stories exploring different cultural contexts outside the United States, where women have contributed to this enduring history.” (publisher’s blurb)

The Production of Entheogenic Communities in the United States
AU$35 Read MoreAdd to cartBrad Stoddard
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2024.Cambridge Elements: New Religious Movements. “The rise of entheogenic religion – that is, religions that involve the use of psychoactive drugs – has captured the attention of scholars and journalists. These studies tend to advance the interests of practitioners who advocate for the legitimacy of entheogens and of entheogenic religion more broadly. This Element breaks with these approaches as it offers a historical and critical analysis of entheogenic communities. It examines the production of entheogenic groups in the United States and considers the historical factors that have contributed to the rise in psychedelics more broadly. It also explores legal considerations and the impact of the law as a curator of entheogenic communities. This Element recognizes that these communities – like all imagined communities – are culturally conditioned, socially constructed, and historically contingent. By exploring these contingencies, we learn more about the broader sociocultural, historical, and economic frameworks that underlie the burgeoning association of psychoactive substances and religion.” (publisher’s blurb)

The Ketamine Papers: Science, Therapy, and Transformation
AU$50 Read MoreAdd to cartPhil Wolfson; Glenn Hartellius
Santa Cruz: Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, 2016.“The Ketamine Papers opens the door to a broad understanding of this medicine’s growing use in psychiatry and its decades of history providing transformative personal experiences. Now gaining increasing recognition as a promising approach to the treatment of depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other psychological conditions, ketamine therapies offer new hope for patients and clinicians alike. With multiple routes of administration and practices ranging from anesthesia to psychotherapy, ketamine medicine is a diverse and rapidly growing field. The Ketamine Papers clarifies the issues and is an inspiring introduction to this powerful tool for healing and transformation–from its early use in the 1960s to its emerging role in the treatment of depression, suicidality, and other conditions. This comprehensive volume is the ideal introduction for patients and clinicians alike, and for anyone interested in the therapeutic and transformative healing power of this revolutionary medicine.” (publisher’s blurb)

Beyond the Brain: Birth, Death, and Transcendence in Psychotherapy
AU$50 Read MoreAdd to cartStanislav Grof
Albany: SUNY Press, 1985.“Beyond the Brain seriously challenges the existing neurophysiological models of the brain. After three decades of extensive research on those non-ordinary states of consciousness induced by psychedelic drugs and by other means, Grof concludes that our present scientific world view is as inadequate as many of its historical predecessors. In this pioneering work, he proposes a new model of the human psyche that takes account of his findings. Grof includes in his model the recollective level, or the reliving of emotionally relevant memories, a level at which the Freudian framework can be useful. Beyond that is perinatal level in which the human unconscious may be activated to a reliving of biological birth and confrontation with death. How birth experience influences an individual’s later development is a central focus of the book.” (publisher’s blurb)

The Crisis by Eugene Field
AU$500 Read MoreAdd to cartEugene Field; [Colin B. Berckelman]
Athens [ie. Sydney]: The Vaginal Press, 1938.The vulgarity of the sexual slang in this scurrilous, pseudonymously published piece of verse would have been regarded in 1938 Australia as being at the very extremes of obscenity. Written and “hand-printed for subscribers only” by bibliophile Colin Berckelman in an (unsurprisingly) small edition of 25 copies, the publication can now be considered a genuine rarity: 11 of the 25 copies have found their way into public collections. Berckelman’s use of the non-de-plume Eugene Field is almost certainly an allusion to the late nineteenth century American writer of the same name who, aside from producing poetry for young readers, wrote The Love Affairs of a Bibliomaniac (1896). Berckelman, for reasons that were either genuine or perverse, evidently felt some affinity with Field. “On top, the pumping method; or lying on the side, Or spread upon her billowing bum, a-la the blushing bride, Or stand up, or sitting down, or resting on all four, Whereby the visitor could take his choice of either door, Or dressed, or naked,… every way her genius could invent To catch the silvery substance that tickleth as ’tis spent.”

Peter Berlin: Icon, Artist, Photosexual
AU$900 Read MoreAdd to cartPeter Berlin
[Bologna]: Damiani, 2019.One of 50 copies of the deluxe edition with a signed and numbered silver gelatin photograph by Berlin housed in the publisher’s original mailing carton. “Featuring the work of Berlin along with images by Tom of Finland, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Andy Warhol, Peter Berlin: Icon pays tribute to the man who in the early to mid-1970s revolutionized the landscape of gay male eroticism and became an international sensation. His self-portrait photography graced the covers of gay magazines, and defined a look that re-imagined a new masculinity among gay men and an emerging gay male culture. Peter Berlin was a self-created. Tailoring his own clothes to accentuate an already naturally defined physique, every part of his anatomy became showcased. Cruising was his career, and with a background in photography, Peter embarked on recording thousands of self-portraits. The book is edited by Michael Bullock is a writer and publisher of BUTT, Pin-Up, Fantastic Man, Gentlewoman, and Apartamento magazines.” (publisher’s blurb)

Seattle: Lucia Marquand, 2023.“From 2011 to 2015, Ashley Kolodner travelled across the United States photographing hundreds of LGBTQIA+ individuals of all ages. She made two consecutive portraits of each of her subjects, photographing them twice during the same sitting: once with eyes closed and then with eyes open. Through more than 180 colour portraits, along with subject interviews, this title reflects the beauty, intimacy and sometimes the pain of a community kept in the shadows for decades. Includes contributing texts by filmmaker Kimberly Peirce and Tony award-winning producer Jordan Roth. These diptychs symbolise the vulnerability many have felt at the outset of discovering their personal identities, and then the realisation and self-actualisation manifest in the intimate and profound process of coming out. Ultimately these pictures and this handsome volume represent a revelatory statement on the profound humanity we all s hare.” (publisher’s blurb)
