Sisters of the Extreme

Women Writing on the Drug Experience:
Charlotte Brontë, Louisa May Alcott, Anaïs Nin, Maya Angelou, Billie Holiday, Nina Hagen, Diane di Prima, Carrie Fisher, and Many Others

An anthology of writings by some of the most influential women in history on the often misunderstood and misrepresented female drug experience.

This is the first collection of women's writings on their experiences with psychoactive drugs. The original of this anthology was published under the title Shaman Woman, Mainline Lady in 1982. The title of this new edition comes from a remark in a letter Grace Slick wrote us upon seeing the book in its original form: "I didn't know I had so many sisters of the extreme."
