Do What Thou Wilt a Life of Aleister Crowley
- Binding: Hardcover
- Edition: 1
- Publisher: St Martins Pr
- Publish date: 10/01/2000
Like many self-styled illuminati of his class and generation, Crowley gravitated toward the occult. He developed a groundbreaking spirituality that reconciled mystical aspirations with hedonistic inclinations. Crowley realized these yearnings in drug-saturated vision quests and in rampant sexual adventurism; at other times he embraced Eastern philosophies and sought enlightenment in the wilderness.
This controversial individual, a frightening mixture of egomania and self-loathing, has inspired passionate -- but seldom fair -- assessments by historians. Sutin, by treating Crowley as a cultural phenomenon, and not simply a sorcerer or a charlatan, proves that "The Beast" remains a fascinating study in eccentricity.
