I was really prompted to get this because LibraryThing kept recommending it to me. But I loved Robert Anton Wilson's fiction and non-fiction in my late teens and early twenties, and so was delighted to discover this audiobook of interviews and lectures - most of it a series of five long interviews from about 2000, and then a couple of lectures delivered in Boulder, Colorado, in earlier years. I'd heard or read most of it before, and have outgrown some of it, but his humorous, cynical, sceptical take on life, politics, literature, religion and the nature of reality was a refreshing break for me over the last few weeks (switching between this and the much less interesting METAtropolis). His Brooklyn drawl seemed to sharpen the humourous but deadly serious points he was making beautifully. (Though I was perplexed by the way he pronounced "monotheism" as "m'NŌTHyism"!) ( )
