The Assassin's Club: The secret Parisian cannabis society that changed the world (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798305031492)

From 1843 to 1846, under the cover of night's darkness, some of the most celebrated poets, painters, sculpturs, architects, and medical minds of the French Romanticism period, gathered for monthly cannabis seances in a bourgeois Golden Palace on an island in Paris's River Seine.

Here, dressed in cultic ritual clothing, Doctor X served up a powerful new drug transforming the Golden Palace into a portal that transcends time and space, transporting its members to a paradise somewhere between reality and a dream, and blurring lines between their creative genius and insanity.

Here, in this scandalous gilded club the seeds of the greatest novels and plays ever written would be incepted.

In the background of this incredible story is a French princess and a cursed love and imprisonment during the time of Louis the 14th.

The following is the true story of how this extravagant esoteric society came to be and its larger than life members who changed both the literary world we live in today and the future of France as a nation.
