Shane Castle asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Influences on the imagery in Cazaril's, erm, epiphany? I suspect Huxley's 'The Doors of Perception'.

Lois McMaster Bujold
Never read it, so, no.

As a general rule, readers inclined to the game of "spot the sources" tend to ascribe influences based on what they know, not on what the author knows/knew. Academics are possibly the worst offenders. (Though they can be right twice a day.)

Ta, L.
