Download or read book The Cult of Aleister Crowley written by J. Edward Cornelius and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-27 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Cult of Aleister Crowley J. Edward Cornelius adds over 150 pages to his wildly popular Memoirs of an A.'.A.'. Initiate. In this expanded volume, Jerry details the ongoing fight for Thelemic freedom against the Restrictionists in the A.'.A.'. lineage who have taken control of the O.T.O. Here's some of what's new in this book. Why is J. Daniel Gunther a Thelemic Pope, according to one of his own lineage members? And did you know Breeze attacked Kenneth Grant and forced him to capitulate any claims to the OTO? And who is Peter Koenig in Switzerland? And what caused Breeze to flee America to Europe where he remains hidden to this day? And how did Dave Scriven become Xth Degree? The untold truth behind the Provisional IX° and the OTO's Chakra system. So many great stories. Bill Breeze's claim that Aiwass, the author of The Book of the Law, was not Crowley's Holy Guardian Angel but merely his pen name. Phyllis Seckler discusses Bill Breeze' 10th House Saturn: "Hitler and Mussolini ¿ also had the same type aspect. But the aspect also gives a great fall after a meteoric rise." What so alarmed James Graeb IX° that he convened a special meeting of the Elector IX°s in a bid to have Bill Breeze removed from office-and how did Phyllis Seckler leverage this into a promise from Breeze to leave the various other A.'.A.'. lineages alone? What is the real secret behind the Caliphate, and what happened to the OTO simply because Bill Breeze never knew it? Why were so many Thelemic movers and shakers thrown out of the Order? What's the full story of the "Fill-Kill" controversy? How come the Tunis Comment turns out to imply that Gunther lineage never had any legitimacy in the first place? Who is Keith Readdy and what are his connection to Boleskine? He who forgets his own history knows nothing. We think you'll enjoy this new volume!
Download or read book Brutal Imagination PA written by Cornelius Eady and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2001-01-15 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the National Book Award in Poetry Brutal Imagination is the work of a poet at the peak of his considerable powers, confronting a crucial subject: the black man in America. “A hymn to all the sons this country has stolen from her African-American families.”—The Village Voice This poetry collection explores the vision of the black man in white imagination, as well as the black family and the barriers of color, class, and caste that tear it apart. These two main themes showcase Cornelius Eady’s range: his deft wit, inventiveness, and skillfully targeted anger, and the way in which he combines the subtle with the charged, street idiom with elegant inversions, harsh images with the sweetly ordinary. Includes poems that inspired the libretto for Eady’s music-drama Running Man, a 1999 Pulitzer Prize finalist.

Book excerpt: He was a mysterious cosmic presence who came out of nowhere with the incredible promise to free the dying planet. Earth's future is one of peace. There are no more wars, nuclear weapons are outlawed, and technology is raising mankind to new heights. Many cities are now underground. Alain von Bek is a bastard of distinguished lineage working an unassuming job with city administration in the underground city of Switzerland. But with the appearance of a massive clownish figure calling himself the Fireclown, Alain's life and the course of Earth's future are both about to change. The Fireclown claims to hold the keys to mankind's salvation. He carries an undeniable charisma that is winning him followers, chief among them Helen Curtis, Alain's cousin and former lover, not to mention serious candidate in the next presidential election. But there are also those who mistrust the Fireclown. At the forefront of this opposition is Minister Simon von Bek, Alain's grandfather, and Helen's chief competition in the forthcoming election. Gradually, Alain finds himself sucked into a game of chess between these three polarizing forces, but each new revelation raises new questions, about his past and that of the world's future. He will have to put his trust in someone, and time is running out-for him and the world.

Download or read book Pegging the President written by Michael Moorcock and published by . This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1960s Jerry Cornelius was the coolest assassin on the Ladbroke Grove block. By the 1970s The Condition of Muzak had won the Guardian Fiction Prize and The Final Programme was a feature film starring Jon Finch, Jenny Runacre, Hugh Griffith and Sterling Hayden. In the 1980s the world s first cyberpunk continued to inspire a generation of writers including William Gibson, Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, and bands like the Human League. By the 1990s he was up and running towards the guns again in stories like The Spencer Inheritance , The Camus Referendum and Cheering for the Rockets , which dealt with the icons and key events of the day. At turn of the millennium, in Firing the Cathedral, he responded to the attacks on America of September 2001 and their consequences, to the realities of global warming and global terrorism. Now, in Pegging the President, Jerry Cornelius is back; the ambiguous, amoral, androgynous English Assassin, cooler, sharper, his fingers still firmly on the pulse of the twenty-first century, counting names and taking heads, showing once again that colonialism and despotism the roots of empire gone sour do not change. The apocalypse has never seemed more terrifying, never been more fun, and modern life will never feel the same to you again -- Provided by the publisher.
