«The Book of Lies» is Aleister Crowley's esoteric book, published by Samuel Weiser in paperback (200 pages, in English).
The work consists of 93 one-page chapters, among which appear a question mark, poems, rituals, instructions, allusions and cryptograms. Each chapter number refers to a cabalistic meaning, and the author added a brief commentary to each to guide the reader.
Originally published in 1912 or 1913 under the pseudonym Frater Perdurabo; this 1986 edition reproduces the commentaries the author wrote around 1921.
A work for those interested in occultism, magic and philosophy, for both initiates in the esoteric tradition and beginners.
Aleister Crowley was an English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, novelist, mountaineer, and painter. He identified as the prophet entrusted with guiding humanity into the Æon of Horus in the early 20th century, founding the religion of Thelema. A prolific writer, he published widely over the course of his life.
