About the Book

Brad Fox takes us on a mind-bending exploration of meaning, matter, and plants, stemming from a year in the high jungles of northeastern Peru. In Another Bone-Swapping Event, Brad Fox tells the story of a wild year spent stuck in the high jungles of Peru, living with a family of Quechua-speaking curanderos - traditional medicine practitioners -responsible for a 100-hectare stretch of jungle just outside of Tarapoto in the northeastern part of the country, four hours' walk from the nearest dirt road. In the care of local maestro Miguel Tapullima, Fox takes readers on a labyrinthine tour of meaning and matter, navigating elementary metaphysics, the wavering ambiguity of phenomena, and the absurdities of the moment. Through it all, the lush prose turns this book into its own mind-altering experience because, with Brad Fox as our guide, we're able to engage with mind-altering possibilities that we may never have considered before.

Review :
Brad Fox has traveled to the centre of many worlds and here records a visit to the 'passionate nada' in his disarming, beautifully natural style. Stranded in a powerful landscape, a clear voice renders human situations in elegant sentences that build to animate profound heartache and self-discovery. Read Another Bone-Swapping Event and witness what transforms. Another Bone-Swapping Event is a trippy modern Decameron. Sequestered with an unlikely group of people from around the world, Brad Fox spent the covid pandemic in the Peruvian mountains under the care of a curandero with vast knowledge of medicinal plants. In this polyphonic book, the voices of humans and plants are woven into a dense meditation on suffering, healing, deception, truth, and what it means to be a living being on Earth. Another Bone-Swapping Event is a profound meditation on what it means to exist on a fragile and vulnerable planet while simultaneously exploring its frayed, otherworldly edges. Sometimes a book's title is sufficiently striking, and its subject-in this case, traditional medicine and the jungles of Peru-sufficiently unfamiliar to me, that it instantly lands a spot on my TBR. This is one of those times. Brad Fox has an uncommon talent for being able to see the light in plight. This book, about a journey to an unfamiliar culture of thought and medicinal practice, of plants and spiritual transparency, is potent and funny and moving, an Odyssey of our time. Another Bone-Swapping Event is a revelatory fever dream in which the world around us peels away to expose the secret patterns beneath. Visceral, unnerving, and ultimately transformative, it is an astonishing achievement.
