Description : More than anything I've ever experienced, this book made me question - well, everything. Reading this was a near-traumatic religous experience - absolutely brilliant. Question reality, question sanity, a wonderful book indeed.

True & Faithful Relation of What Passed for Many Years Between Dr. John Dee & Some Spirits (1659)
Category : Other Stuff
Author : John Dee, Meric Casaubon, Dr John Dee, Dr. John Dee
ISBN (No Dashes) : 0766108120
|
|
Description : This edition is a facsimile of the original typescript from the 16th Century. Casaubon has printed the diaries of Doctor John Dee (Queen Eizabeth's personal Astrologer) dealing with his interaction with angels through the scrying of Sir Edward Kelly, specificly with the system of magic the angels delivered whichis now called "Enochian." A heavy read but it is the source material used by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and likewise by Crowley and so on.

The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theory
Category : Other Stuff
Author : Carol J. Adams
ISBN (No Dashes) : 0826405134
|
|
Description : Basically the title says it all. The book discusses the sexual politics of meat, the rape of animals and the butchering of women, the masked violence and the vegeterian's muted voices, dismembered texts and dismembered animals, feminism the great war, and modern vegeterianism. It also discusses the distortion of the vegeterian body. I do say that it is a slow start, but once you get into the book it is very very good.

Description : A man trapped in a millionare's deadly game of political and sexual betrayal.
Filled with shocks and chilling surprises, The Magus is a masterwork of contemporary literature.

As reality and fantasy are deliberately confused by staged deaths, erotic encounters, and terrifying violence, Urfe becomes a desperate man fighting for his sanity and his life. A work rich with symbols, conundrums and labrinthine twists of event, The Magus is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining, a work that ranks with the best novels of modern times.
