Selected letters of occult author Gareth Knight, written over a
period of forty years and to over seventy different people. These
include learned discourse with academics, exchanges of strange
experiences with esoteric colleagues, and advice to seekers trying
to find their path. The letters reveal extraordinary, entertaining
and personal details of the life and work of a contemporary
occultist. "One fault of many occult students is to read too much
... all too often the new student is so interested in reading the
latest thing that he never gets round to actually doing any of it."
"I suppose you can at least feel what it is like to be 'a lone
voice crying in the wilderness' ... I think even John the Baptist,
in time, would have packed up his traps, said 'Sod it' (or 'Sod
them') and gone home, maybe to start a locust and wild honey farm."
"Your remark that the devil works by compromise and subtlety is
altogether too glib a simplification. He works equally well through
uncompromising 'principles' very often. The thing that bothers me
though is your preoccupation with the insinuations of the devil,
which seems at times to verge on 'old maid's insanity'. I get the
impression - I hope wrongly - that I stand a good chance of being
cast in the role of the serpent offering the poisoned, or forbidden
fruit."
