Strange story: After reading your first part I happened to be at a yard sale where there was just this story in a collection that included The Celestial Omnibus. I bought it right away- but also there happened to be an Alistair Crowley book too.

I was able to download a copy of this from Amazon for free. I thoroughly enjoyed the 50 page read, and with your analysis, I’ve become a fan of the book. Thanks for these articles, they are fantastic.

Every article you write about lit, myth and fairy tale do both. I wish I could have had a professor like you in these subjects when I was studying at the dumb woke Community College
