Forbidden Fruit
by Heathcote Williams
“Even when all possible scientific questions have been answered,” wrote Ludwig Wittgenstein, “the problems of life remain completely unanswered.” Still angry after all these years, Heathcote Williams turns his poetic talent to science and technology… Grrrrrrrrrrr!
“A substantial slim volume… Great stuff!”—Tony Allen
“Forbidden Fruit is a collection of inspirations. The book is as rich and dark as wasp honey.”—Michael McClure
