  • Overview

    La asombrosa historia del hongo alucinógeno que dio la vuelta al mundo.

    México, años cincuenta. En las montañas de Oaxaca una carismática chamana realiza extraños rituales: es María Sabina, quien utiliza los poderosos hongos alucinógenos Psilocybe, a los que bautiza como sus cositas. Desde Nueva York e impulsados por su pasión por la micología, el banquero Gordon Wasson y su esposa Valentina viajan para conocer los secretos de ese hongo sin imaginar que su descubrimiento va a dar la vuelta al mundo, desde la CIA hasta el Museo de Historia Natural de París, desde las celebridades de la contracultura psicodélica hasta los laboratorios farmacéuticos, y que el destino de la chamana cambiará para siempre.

    Entre la novela de aventuras y la historia cultural, este original debut narra la asombrosa historia real del último psicotrópico natural por descubrir, un hongo que acabaría convertido en un fenómeno internacional, al tiempo que esconde el amargo relato de una apropiación cultural y una reflexión aguda sobre lo sagrado, la modernidad y el instinto depredador del hombre occidental.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    The astonishing story of the psychedelic mushroom that changed the world.

    Mexico, the 1950s. In the mountains of Oaxaca a charismatic shaman performs strange rituals: María Sabina, who uses powerful Psilocybe magic mushrooms she calls her "little things." Driven by their passion for mycology, banker Gordon Wasson and his wife Valentina travel from New York to learn the mushroom's secrets, never imagining that their discovery will spread around the globe, reaching everyone from the CIA to the Natural History Museum in Paris, from psychedelic counterculture celebrities to pharmaceutical labs, and forever altering the shaman's fate.

    Part adventure novel, part cultural history, this original debut tells the astonishing true story of the last natural psychotropic to be discovered, a mushroom that became an international phenomenon while concealing the bitter tale of cultural appropriation and a sharp reflection on the sacred, modernity, and the predatory instincts of Western man.
