Aleister Crowley Snowdrops from a Curate's Garden
Chicago The Teitan Press 1986 0-933429-01-0 / 9780933429017 First Thus Fine Fine
Erotic novel written by Crowley to amuse his wife. His purpose was to write the most ridiculously extreme sexual fantasy ever composed. The book was first privately and anonymously printed in 1904 in an edition of 100 copies, most of which were destroyed about 1926 by H. M. Customs. So it was essentially an unknown classic of Crowleyana until this 1986 edition, revsied and enlarged and edited by Martin P. Starr, a scholar of Crowley's life and works. This edition includes an interesting account of the period in which "Snowdrops" was composed and the author's attitudes on sex in literature. With bookshop's small label on free endpaper and back of dustjacket. No previous owner name or other marking. No price clipped. A fine copy.
