The Focus Of Life
by Austin Osman Spare
Spare was a visionary artist of the early 20th century whose heroic nude figures of charwomen and petty criminals were haunted at the edges by ghost and demons. A practicing magician and friend of Crowley, he encoded his private magickal mythology into this collection of "the mutterings of Aaos." This sumptuous new edition contains the original introduction and all the original illustrations, plus five extra drawings and two colour plates along with a biographical Foreword by Spare’s friend Dennis Bardens.
