In Colin Wilson's science-fiction novel, The Mind Parasites, the protagonist and his associates discover that human consciousness has been victimized, dragged down, and intimidated by a strange parasite that has been feeding on it, sapping its power, for centuries.

Free of the mind parasites, they are the first truly free human beings, elated and enormously powerful. (en) |
