{"product_id":"do-what-thou-wilt-lawrence-sutin-9780312288976","title":"Do What Thou Wilt: A Life of Aleister Crowley","description":"\u003cp\u003eAleister Crowley was a blustery coward, an arrogant, misogynistic racist with fascist leanings, and a callous user, as often threatened by his sexuality as he claimed to be liberated by it. But he was also a groundbreaking poet and an iconoclastic visionary whose literary and cultural legacies extend far beyond the limits of his reputation. This controversial individual, a frightening mixture of egomania and self-loathing, has inspired passionate--but seldom fair--assesments by historians. Sutin, by treating Crowley as a cultural phenomenon, and not simply a sorcerer or a charlatan, convinces skeptic readers that the self-styled \"Beast\" remains a fascinating study in eccentricity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lawrence Sutin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0312288972\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312288976\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martin's Griffin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/16\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.40d","brand":"Lawrence Sutin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987283345663,"sku":"9780312288976","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b2db2dfd-770b-44da-9284-2978b3c89c82.jpg?v=1683288058","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/do-what-thou-wilt-lawrence-sutin-9780312288976","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
