One key to the dark, dystopian vision is his continued use of Amphetamines. i believe Stephen King used them too, both writers of prolific weirdness. Ever take speed? It’ll lead you down some dark by-ways and of course, creativity is only a fine line away from insanity EVER. Speed also makes you paranoid, another shared ingredient in this genre. This doc made me feel sad, not a lot of happiness going on but i suppose the work, his output, is justification.. i have long believed that great art is usually the product of obsession, which leads to compromise in all other areas of a Life. Sad Life but some great stories
I agree completely. The multiple revolving wives probably helped too in getting the creative juices flowing. Speed is an evil and dirty drug but it’s cheap and easy to get hold of and it fuelled most of his work. He only really lost me when he got religion in his later years. ‘Flow my Tears, the Policeman Said’ is an underrated masterpiece. See also ‘Radio Free Albemuth’. Not watched the doc yet. One of my favourite writers though.
