Exploring themes of addiction and mysticism, this novel is Aleister Crowley's debut work, reflecting his personal struggles with drug use, particularly heroin. Set against the backdrop of the Abbey of Thelema in Sicily, the narrative blurs the lines between fiction and reality, as Crowley claims it is a "true story" with only minor alterations to disguise identities. The book serves as a fascinating insight into Crowley's life and the early 20th-century occult scene, marking a significant contribution to literature on drug experiences.
