        August 2019

        Don Ignacio Duri Palomeque

        by Robin Van Loon y Camila Villalobos

        Don Ignacio Duri Palomeque: Stories of a Shaman in the Peruvian Amazon" is the story told by the very voice of master ayahuasca and healer Ignacio Duri Palomeque. In this hybrid text, which mixes testimony, the learning manual and the anecdotal, our character narrates his life story from the first decades of the 20th century, with his arrival in Peru from the Bolivian Amazon; his experience as a shiringuero in the rubber era, a decisive moment when he first learned about Ayahuasca and began his training in shamanism; and his arrival in the native community of Infierno, where he currently lives and has been practicing as a shaman for more than 40 years. The stories that build this text were compiled over a decade, through audio recordings in daily conversations with some of his apprentices. The chapters of the book converge between stories of his intimate life, Ayahuasca ceremonies, secrets, and a wide knowledge of medicinal plants endemic to the Peruvian Amazon and the worldview of the Amazon culture".
