The Simon Iff Stories and Other Works | Aleister Crowley, William Breeze
post image

@Leftcoastzen I don't have a huge Crowley collection, but have got his Simon Iff stories in the same edition as your "Drug" book (which I've had on my shelf since 2014 and, like you, I've also not read ?), a couple of his tarot books, and his tarot deck. I don't believe in divination, but do find the system interesting culturally and psychologically.

Leftcoastzen I‘m on your same page with Tarot , nice collection! 2y

While we are on the subject @Bookwomble this is a Crowley that‘s has been sitting unread on my shelves since December of 2015.As a bookseller we were always told books by Crowley are among the most stolen.I guess if you are planning to practice dark arts book theft is pretty minor league.Bibles get stolen a lot as well , is the logic there forgiveness?😆🤷‍♀️🤔

Bookwomble Ha, ha 😂 I like the psychology of both those explanations 😈😇 2y

I bought this in August 1986, started reading its 960 pages, and got about 10% of the way into it then put it down for 35 years. It just sprang to my notice today that somehow over the intervening period I've managed to not catalogue it. Well, I have now, and wonder whether I might read it this year 🤔
(Yes, Crowley *has* drawn a knob on his own head in the self-portrait on the cover 🍆)

Leftcoastzen My favorite part of a L.Ron Hubbard bio I read was the section about when he was in a Crowley cult in Pasadena, Ca.with Jack Parsons . 2y
Bookwomble @Leftcoastzen I hadn't come across Jack Parsons before and had to look him up - he sounds like a pretty wild guy! 2y
Leftcoastzen I hadn‘t either! mind was 🤯Crazy California Cultists!👺👹😈 2y
Bookwomble @Leftcoastzen An interesting mix of hard science and delusion. 2y

This book was fantastic. On the day of her death Orquidea gathers her family to her so that she can give them their Inheritance and then she literally transforms into a tree. Seven years later after a few of the family members die questionably Marimar, Rey and Rhiannon start searching for answers to Orquidea's history.

The lyrics to Crowley‘s lullaby from episode one. It‘s just too perfect!!! It‘s just up there with 100 Monkeys‘ song “Keep Awake.” EVERYBODY SING!!!
#TerryPratchett #NeilGaiman #GoodOmens @Branwen #Crowley #lullaby

Branwen I definitely laughed SO HARD at this part, rewatching it! 😂🤣 Oh Crowley! Aziraphale is my spirit animal, but Crowley has such a special place in my heart! 💕 3y
GingerAntics @Branwen it‘s great to watch it. If you didn‘t pay attention to the words, you‘d completely miss the joke of it. I love that it‘s also the theme song. I‘m torn between Az and Crowley as my spirit animal. The book collector is me, but the mischief and the music is also me. It‘s so hard to choose. These two characters are just brilliant!!! 3y
Branwen @GingerAntics I can totally see how you'd be both! 😁 I relate to Aziraphale not only because of his book collecting, but because he hates exercise and loves food! 😂🤣 I love the scene with him and Gabriel in the park! 3y

GingerAntics @Branwen oh, I hadn‘t thought of his love of food and good drink. I love when Gabriel doesn‘t get why he actually eats food. Gabriel really struggles with that, for some reason. 3y
Branwen @GingerAntics I love that too! When I think of angels being on earth, I just assume they enjoy things like food as humans do! It's super interesting when Gabriel just doesn't understand it! 3y
GingerAntics @Branwen Gabriel doesn‘t seem to understand most things about the world. 3y

A book for Instagram haha. I thought I‘d give a collection of Crowley writing a go, but while it might look good on my bookshelf to me it‘s impenetrable, exceedingly trite.
