Crowley. A Beginner's Guide

Graphic guides are one of the successful trends of recent years, introducing students to a whole range of thinkers and subjects, both ancient and modern. Aleister Crowley is a man who had one of the hidden influences on our era. The full spectrum of his achievements is little studied, and what is known is usually condemned. The description of Crowley's life has great entertainment value, but he also had a very serious side, and he was closely associated with many artistic and intellectual movements of his time. He was one of the most radical and interesting figures of the twentieth century. However, reservations regarding the occult, as well as the scandalous aspects of his life and personality, hindered the serious study that he deserves. Writer John Moore and artist John Higgins have created a lively and easy-to-understand introduction to this fascinating subject. There is hope that this will provoke even greater interest in him.
