Oryelle Defenestre Bascule, in coniunction with Fulgur books, has created probably THE most impressive tome of the past quarter century. Indeed, it is hard to find a comparison until you go back to the grimoires of AOS.
Oryelle's enlightened conceptions and inspired graphicks, are married with spellbinding bookbinding arts of Robert Ansell at Fulgurifick.
As the pages are divided, for the sake of Art, cosmic pairs are separated, until, when the pages are reunited, phallus is once again reunited with its natural home, and in the secret places between the closed pages, the archetypal figures unite in inky bliss. But this is merely the first layer; first perusal is but the first caress in a long term relationship which I intend to develop with these pages. The symbolism is intense, and looks like it will take some time to tease it out. European, Egyptian and Indian deities romp through its pages, spreading thelemic and spareific good news in every direction. There is even a chance for the reader to remove a chaperone on tracing paper (parchment) to allow for a fuller union that may end one's own universe. I have not yet chanced it.
Having splodged the extra few quid, I was rewarded with the quarter-bound version, together with hand-drawn signature; black slipcase, and some wonderful red and silver-inked marblings. If you intend to buy only one new book this Aeon, I heartily recommend this book of pleasure.
Rip off your robe, pull out your acolyte, and imitate the wonderful inkings for your next ritual in the dark. Oh frabjous day, Caloo Calay!
