The Book of Lies
Aleister Crowley
Gelesen von P. J. Taylor
The Book of Lies, or Liber 333, is a holy book in the Western occult tradition of Thelema, consisting of 91 short chapters of poems, aphorisms, rituals, and metaphysics. This recording is of the original 1913 publication, and thus omits the further commentaries added by Crowley for subsequent additions. Those familiar with Crowley’s hermetic writings will recognize his subversive and playful style. Beneath the layers of symbolism, contradiction, and blasphemy lies a biting critique of the puritanical social, political, and religious values of the author’s generation. - Summary by P. J. Taylor

Occult eccentric

Crowley's book of 91 lies. The reader had a perfectly deep and intense like a ceremonial ritual leader. I liked how he described the illustrations in the book for listeners. Thank you!
A good audiobook.
Grievenheart
The narrator truly does justice to Crowley and his style of writing. For those interested in Thelema (or the occult in general), this audiobook is really worth the listen.
not enough lies
Bill Cosby
I expect more lies to be in all my heretical books. Also the readers voice was way to squeaky
Why?
Apple Goddess
The over dramatic vocal affect used by the reader makes it impossible to listen to what might be useful information.
Brilliant
