Laing is an important thinker and seeing his poetic insight enlightened me to how creative his mind actually was! Definitely recommend!

A Special Read
Knots is obviously knot for everybody as it consists of many logic-defying, circular, brain-twisting "poems" that are really like mental riddles that fascinated Dr. Laing. Their beauty lies in their relationship to the sorts of twisted logic heard by psychotherapists as their patients try to justify certain beliefs and positions. It is probably true that while these Laing knots are very frustrating and wierd, our beliefs lie somewhere on a continuum of similar knotted thinking.
