Awake

This novel reveals the story of a young man (Marcus Brannon) discovering himself and his connection with nature using hallucinogenics. Throughout the book, he trips on LSD wandering through the city of Long Beach, eats psychedelic mushrooms in the hills of Laguna Beach, wanders around Las Vegas at night hallucinating on acid, and trips at a Grateful Dead concert in the desert. His many hallucinogenic experiences lead him from a frustrated college student in the early nineties
to the role of an artist who can see through centuries of hypocrisy and lies and deceit.
