Sex Magicians

I think I already knew about half of the stuff in this book after reading about Crowley and Jack Parsons but the book was simultaneously one of the funniest and most disgusting books I have ever read. I listened as I did my morning walk and laughed out loud many times.

These kinds of books leave more questions than they answer and remind me of James Burkes “Connections”. One connection leads to another and you end up having a list of other books to read to verify the crazy stories that the author quotes.

I should listen again and take notes. There is so much crazy stuff that it can’t be true but the impact on popular culture is huge so it is worth knowing about.
