Book Reviews of The Book of the Law: Liber Al Vel Legis
Book Review: On the binding/book itself
Summary: 5 Stars
I cant comment on the contents. I haven't read it all yet, and from what I have read by others (other books about Crowely that I read to better understand the Thoth Tarot deck, I am not a student of Crowely in any way) they seem to say that this sort of book is the sort that one can only read and interperate for themselves... in other words, it would be useless for me to reflect upon it to you, even if I had read it.
Instead I chose to comment on the beauty of the book. Some people have said that the binding is ugly and I think this refers to an older version of the book. The book that I received is beautiful, bound well, and the print is clear. I think that the formating and the colors are quite stunning. I'm impressed with the look of the book. I think whatever version they bought, perhaps it is an older version, the book I got was quite lovely.
As to whether to buy the book or not... I think its up to you. If you are looking at this, you obviously are curious about it. I think, based on what I have read of other's reflections, that its the sort of book you read and take it with a grain of salt. I think that it is not intended to be a religion, as he says that quite vehemently through out a few things I have read he seems to be rather anti-religion, and it seems to be more of a personal philosophy. I haven't read it, like I said, I cant say much about it.
Summary of The Book of the Law: Liber Al Vel Legis
"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law." This oft-misunderstood phrase, which forms the basis for Crowley's practice of Magick, is found in The Book of the Law. Dictated to Crowley in Cairo between noon and 1 pm on three success days in April 1904, the Book of the Law is the source book and key for Crowley students and for the occult in general.Dreams Books
