The study of travel literature, and literary representations of and philosophical inquiries into drugs and intoxication have grown increasingly prominent as independent fields of inquiry, but neither field has produced any sustained examination of the relationships between the two. In this volume, Banco examines interlocking representations of travel and drugs in the fiction of Burroughs, Huxley and others in order to assesses how and why metaphors of mobility help conceptualize the experience of intoxication as well as how and why drugs enable us to think about the pleasures and the pains of travel. He discovers that the juxtaposition of traveling and tripping - which he argues is often a process of 'spatializing intoxication' - raises important questions about identity, alterity, utopia, and capitalism.
