This is a true story. . . It is a terrible story; but it is also a
story of hope and of beauty. Written by Aleister Crowley, Diary of
a Drug Fiend tells the story of young Peter Pendragon and his lover
Louise Laleham, and their adventures traveling through Europe in a
cocaine and heroin haze. The bohemian couples binges produce
visions and poetic prophecies, but when their supply inevitably
runs dry they find themselves faced with the reality of their drug
addiction. Through the guidance of King Lamus, a master adept, they
use the application of practical Magick to free themselves from
addiction. Released in as his first published novel in 1922 and
dubbed a book for burning by the papers of the time, Diary of a
Drug Fiend reveals the poet, the lover, and the profound adept that
was Aleister Crowley.
