Of the one hundred numbered copies that were originally printed, only a handful were spared destruction by Her Majesty's Customs; an outcome which speaks against Crowley's decision to invoke the blessing of the Virgin Mary in his prefatory sonnet. Crowley would go on to establish himself as a leading figure in the Western occult tradition. A drug addict, bisexual, and proponent of sex magick, Crowley's flamboyantly impious lifestyle would lead the tabloid press to crown him "The Wickedest Man in the World.

I'd best describe this book as "Baudelaire, only more so". Baudelaire wrote about decadence, sex, death, and all that. Crowley got more and more depraved and perverted as the book went on until he got to bestiality, necrophilia, and the drinking of menstrual blood. It is, strangely enough, one of the best books I've read in a long while.

The composition of the poems themselves are lovely, and I loved the premise they're in chronological order, written by this guy who slipped more and more into I'd best describe this book as "Baudelaire, only more so".
