内容简介

White Stains remains Aleister Crowley s most infamous work, his attempt at taking the Satanic/erotic decadencee of Baudelaire and ramping it up to new extremes of degradation, sexual depravity and demonic frenzy. Revelling in filth, Crowley includes odes to sodomy, fellatio, cunnilingus, analingus, rape, lesbianism, impotence, venereal disease, bestiality, sado-masochism, coprophilia, necrophila, blasphemy and devil-worship in this staggering, over-the-top compendium of eros and evil. This new edition of White Stains also includes Crowley s rare later volume, The Nameless Novel (1904), a rampant pornographic novella written to stimulate and amuse his wife. With a new introduction by Crowley scholar D M Mitchell, the book is illustrated with rare examples of Victorian erotic photography, making it a decorative document of fin-de-si?¨cle erotica, as well as a unique compendium of Crowley s most outrageous and notorious literary output.
