Abstract
The article deals with the problem of verbalizing drug experience and the resulting problem of determining passage of time. I study Aldous Huxley’s and Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz’s trip-reports written during psychedelic experience. Both writers have trouble with defining passage of time, and although they took the same drug, their psychedelic experience took completely different courses. In Huxley’s subjective perception time seems to “freeze”, while Witkacy’s psychedelic experience seems to be quick and dynamic.
