Synopsis

The Adventures of Christian Rosy Cross, David Foster's comic retelling of the Rosicrucian myth, draws its inspiration chiefly from the occult epigrams of Michael Maier, the seventeenth-century alchemist and chief apologist for the Rosicrucian movement.

Foster's iconoclastic account of his youthful hero's travels in the East is at once a picaresque fiction, a scholarly contribution to the history of spiritual alchemy, an ethic for the drug user and a lament for the now-departed spirit of the 1960s.
