The dust jacket is in excellent condition with very slight shelfwear near the top fore-edge and the remnants of an old price sticker on the back. A contemporary reviewer for the Sheffield Daily Telegraph describes Crowley's work: "So far as we can understand the story, which is almost unintelligible, it is about a brother who seeks to found a new religion, of which his younger sister shall be the goddess, and, in order to achieve that end, stabs her and eats her heart. It is simply loathsome and horrible."
