About absinthe
Erowid's absinthe pages cover just about any absinthe topic you can think of: basic facts, history, chemistry, the drink's legal status around the world, drinker's experiences... Also an interesting collection of paintings and posters.
If you are looking for a reliable absinthe buyer's guide, don't miss the appropriately named Buy Absinthe website. It contains brands reviews, a list of good places to purchase from (online and in the 'real world'), tips and tricks for first-time buyers and absinthe-related news.

The Absinthe Drinkers is a Philadelphia band that combines poetry with original rock, jazz and funk - and the results are pretty amazing. If you fancy a bit of funked up Rimbaud, Baudelaire or Shakespeare, check out their site for upcoming shows or download sample tracks.
Absinthe: New European Writing
is a biannual journal that publishes translations of contemporary European writing that -- like absinthe itself -- is not widely available in the United States. Published by a Detroit native Dwayne D. Hayes, the journal contains poetry, prose and essays. Recommended.
Widow Moon by Peggy Amond
Whether or not poetry is the highest form of expression is one topic often debated over a glass of absinthe. Peggy Amond's Widow Moon certainly proves that "real poetry is not a thing of the past," as Bonnie Sutterby of PoetWorks noted. Ms Amond's book (available here) includes her famed tribute to the great "absinthe poet" Arthur Rimbaud.
