Anyone here read this? Have a friend who recommended it to me, he constantly references it when we're on LSD lately so figured I'd see what you all thought of it

Yeah, I read it.
In some ways it's an ugly book. The prose is blunt, even brutal, the plot is just sort of the outline of a story on which the allegory is hung, characters appear and die on a whim, character dialogue and action can be stilted and bizarre. It's incredibly dense with imagery and allusion to philosophical positions, and generally benefits very slow reading. Some scenes are described that are, by stipulation, impossible to visualize (due to made-up colors, etc.). The ending is cryptic and painful.
OP you should read Peter Pan
it's the story of some little boys who never grew up
It's pretty great -- enigmatic and weird.
It's actually rather comfy.
