The Medusa’s Head, or Conversations Between Aleister Crowley, and Adolf Hitler, Mandrake of Oxford first edition 1991, #305/350. Excellent used condition, there is a stain on the first blank page and title page as shown in the photo.
A dramatic fictional dialogue published in 1991 by John Symonds, Crowley's literary executor.
The text imagines a series of conversations between Crowley and Adolf Hitler in which Crowley attempts to advise, instruct, and at times warn Hitler on matters of occult philosophy, politics, and destiny.
Crowley frames Hitler as a man flirting with tremendous occult forces without full comprehension, particularly the destructive currents of the Aeon of Horus.
The “Medusa’s Head” serves as an image of destructive obsession, false glamour, and the petrifying effect of power without wisdom. The dialogue mixes political commentary, satire, and occult speculation. It is not an endorsement of Hitler but rather an exploration of the dangers of misapplied will and authoritarianism.
