Description

2021 Reprint of the 1913 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. The Book of Lies (full title: Which is also Falsely Called BREAKS. The Wanderings or Falsifications of the One Thought of Frater Perdurabo, which Thought is itself Untrue. Liber CCCXXXIII was written by English occultist and teacher Aleister Crowley (using the pen name of Frater Perdurabo) and first published in 1912 or 1913. As Crowley describes it: "This book deals with many matters on all planes of the very highest importance. It is an official publication for Babes of the Abyss, but is recommended even to beginners as highly suggestive." The book consists of 91 chapters, each of which consists of one page of text. The chapters include a question mark, poems, rituals, instructions, and obscure allusions and cryptograms. The subject of each chapter is generally determined by its number and its corresponding Qabalistic meaning. Around 1921, Crowley wrote a short commentary about each chapter, assisting the reader in the Qabalistic interpretation. This commentary is not included in this facsimile of the original edition published by Wieland and Company in 1913. Read more

    • Excellent Read
I am really loving this book, it is just so much fun to read. I also find it to be inspiring. I think Crowley is one of the greatest writers I have ever read. The spirit of this book is fun and puzzling and profound all in one. It is full of riddles that will challenge you. It ties in nicely with the study of Qabalah, actually knowledge of the Qabalah will greatly enhance your reading of this book and vice versa! I like the quality of this edition, as I do all of the other books I have ordered that were published by Weiser. It is just nice, well worth more than I paid for it, as I will be reading it for the rest of my life as far as I can tell. There is always another insight to be gleaned from even a casual read of a few chapters. I have learned many things that I never saw coming, like the Greek alphabet! I give it two thumbs up all the way! ... show more

    • amazing poetry for spirtual transformataion
i was once told that i would not come to understand the meaning, works, or symbolism of the genius that is crowley untill i was ready for it. i first learned of crowley from the infamous ozzy song at the age of thirteen. i am now 27 and i bought this book two years ago with all intentions of coming to know more about said works of crowley. i beileive this is a great start for anyone who wants to know more about him. i still have not read every chapter as he calls them, however i just read one or two at a time and find myself contemplating what i read for a couple weeks on end. any poetry that can do that is life changing and i am glad i bought this when i did. trully a heart felt collection,this has deep dualistic and or multiple meanings that intertwine and connect with other poems throughout the book. i love this book as a poet myself, next two purchases will be white stains,and the book of the law and who knows what else from there. i have allways love anything esoteric/metaphysical/occultish/new age or whatever you call it all. ... show more

This is a nice copy of Liber 333 for the price; it will likely sit in my shelves for a good while.

    • Beyond Kabbalah...
If you've studied Crowley for even a few hours, you'll realize that you're not going to open this book and understand what he was getting at just by reading through the text a few times. This is undoubtedly a work that requires careful consideration of so many implicit elements. To list what you need to consider to get at "the deeper meaning" of this book, I'd have to sit here all day. The interesting thing about this book is that you don't necessarily have to analyze the text thoroughly (though it's certainly worth it) to get something out of it. Some of the 'poems' evoke a good laugh, some are beautiful and inspiring and can easily become a personal gem of wisdom for the reader (for me, "The Mountaineer".) When I first started getting into Crowley's writing, a friend recommended starting with the Book of Lies. Other friends naturally scoffed at the recommendation, and insisted I start with The Book of the Law. Now I wish I'd gone with the Book of Lies first, so that I could come back to it after reading other Crowley just to see how far I've come in the Great Work. Even if the Great Work isn't your goal, this book if nothing else is a fantastic conversation piece. I recommend it to not only occultists, but to all book lovers. It's fascinating. ... show more

    • I couldn't understand a thing he wrote
I am giving this three stars because I am stupid to what it says. This version has a part that explains it and I still don't get it. I tried for over a year to get it and never did. I still own it with all the notes and formulas that I wrote in it but can't figure it out at all. I even pretended that the people didn't understand it either so I attempted to do research myself. Lost is all I can say. Not for everyone but those that do understand it I give many props to. ... show more
