Mer om författaren
Born in Leamington Spa in 1875, Aleister Crowley was an only child who had a great deal of attention lavished on him by his parents. His father was born a Quaker, but converted to the Exclusive Brethren a subsection of the Plymouth Brethren, so religion played a big part in his early life. Sadly, his father died when he was only 11 and it seemed to send the boy off in a new direction. Crowley embarked on a lifelong investigation into the dark arts, turning himself into a cult figure who defied convention and is still famous in the modern world.
