The Works of Aleister Crowley Vol. 1

Focusing on religion and mythology, this volume showcases Crowley's early works from 1898-1902, marking a shift from his previously graphic themes. As he explores mystical and spiritual ideas, readers witness his growth and maturity, setting the stage for the subsequent volumes. The collection features four poems, five plays, and sections of shorter poems, alongside an Epilogue and an Appendix on Qabalistic Dogma. Notably, Crowley's plays, particularly "Tanhauser: The Story of All Time," intriguingly touch on concepts later articulated by Einstein.
