| Professional Reviews | <b><i>New York Times</i>:</b> "A SEPARATE REALITY is extraordinary in every sense of the word, and much more than a sequel. While it has the same intelligent modesty, graceful modulation, and narrative skill as his first book, Castaneda here abandons his frustrating reticence. As he comes closer to don Juan in his struggle through his mystical obstacle course, their relationship takes on another dimension. This book ceases to be simply phenomenological reportage. The anthropologist's rescue of an alien language from oblivion becomes a moving personal quest, an autobiography." |

| Publisher's Note | Don Juan looked at me for a moment and did not seem at all surprised to see me, even though it had been more than two years since I had last visited him. |
