About This Item
Richmond Vista: Three Hands Press, 2010. First Edition. Standard hardcover edition limited to 726 hand-numbered copies, this being No. 45. Bound in dark grey cloth with textured black end papers. 152 pages. With black and white illustrations by the author. A fine copy in a fine, letterpress dust jacket. The Opuscula Magica series is scheduled for four volumes (two have been published). The series presents short exegetical works on magic by the British occult author Andrew D. Chumbley (1967-2004) including his magical essays, homilies, and other obscure works which originally appeared in small-circulation occult journals now out of print. Volume One contains nine essays written between 1990 and 2003, including one previously unpublished. This volume also includes an Authors Introduction never before published, as well as an expanded version of the interview with Chumbley in The Cauldron Magazine. The essays reflect a degree of magical insight, clarity of vision, and creativity seldom equaled in occult writing to this day. And while these essays are considered to be lesser known works, they do present much initiated commentary on Traditional Craft, the Art and Nature of Magic and Crooked Path Sorcery, the Question of Sacrifice, and the Secret Nature of Ritual.
