White Stains #357143

Aleister Crowley’s controversial book of risqué verse was clandestinely published in Amsterdam in 1898 and of the hundred copies that were imported into England, only a handful were spared destruction by the British Government. Inspired by Psychopathia Sexualis, Richard Krafft-Ebing's controversial study of sexual perversity, White Stains purports to be “the literary remains of George Archibald Bishop, a neuropath of the Second Empire.”
