What do you think about Carlos Castaneda's books?

Post by fabulasaule »

I have recently read 'Journey to Ixtlan' by Carlos Castaneda. I know he is a well known writer but somehow I didn't like his book at all. I think that it is unique if the story is based on real facts but in general I am not fasicanted neither by don Chuan nor by Castaneda as narrator. What do you think about Castaneda and his other books?

You mean Carlos the Crackpot? I don't like him either. He sits WAY out on the edge of the branch talking to squirrels.

I once knew a Yaqui who thought his stuff was good. She was crazy too.
