Narrative Conducive To Books The Book of Lies

The Book of Lies (full title: Which is also Falsely Called BREAKS. The Wanderings or Falsifications of the One Thought of Frater Perdurabo, which Thought is itself Untrue. Liber CCCXXXIII [Book 333]) was written by English occultist Aleister Crowley (using the pen name of Frater Perdurabo) and first published in 1912 or 1913. The book consists of 93 chapters, each of which consists of one page of text. The chapters include a question mark, poems, rituals, instructions, and obscure allusions and cryptograms. The subject of each chapter is generally determined by its number and its corresponding qabalistic meaning. Around 1921, Crowley wrote a short commentary about each chapter, assisting the reader in the qabalistic interpretation. Several chapters and a photograph in the book reference Leila Waddell, who Crowley called Laylah, and who, as Crowley's influential Scarlet Woman, acted as his muse during the writing process of this volume.

Cryptic and awesome. Wish i understood half of it.

It's actually not easy to review this one... it's a book of philosophy more than anything. Its contents were written by a very egotistical media whore... and strangely enough, I say that with the utmost respect. While many negative adjectives would apply to Crowley (and he may have even proudly used them in description of himself), he was brilliant, and has much wisdom to offer.Many of the entries in this book seem to be nonsensical (and likely are precisely that), some of them are brilliant,

Possibly drug-induced pablum. Good in fragments, preferably aloud on the subway.

This is one of those books that jumps out at you on the shelf of a used book store. When I saw the creepy anthropomorphic sun staring out at me from the end of the stack, I was immediately taken in. The book vendor told me to read it and form my own impressions before looking into interpretations or even into the life of Crowley. I'm not a practitioner of occult, but I do like obscure subcultures. This book offered a glimpse into the world that fascinated such modernists as Yeats and later



The Book of lies By Aleister CrowleyLets start first about this author. Aleister Crowley is a controversial author and he is called devil incarnate and famous cult writer. He is a magician, drug addict and possibly a sociopath. Welcome to the world of occultism.These are the fables of authors' annotations. These are not for a beginner read if you dont understand occult or anyone rational. This book should be in a lamb cover, inked in the blood which should smell like a rotten egg so that you don
