ANNOUNCING: Cornelia Cornucopia by J. Edward Cornelius. Our newest title illuminates the Thelemic inward journey as approached in Grady Louis McMurtry’s A.’.A.’.
Cornelia Cornucopia comprises writings from Jerry Cornelius’ Cornelia magazine (2007-2008), which he created as a “way to reach everyone” about “our A.’.A.’. structure, history, and learning requirements”. This classic publication changed many of our lives.
Including treasures from several unpublished issues, Cornelia Cornucopia imparts Jerry Cornelius’ wisdom, humour, and guidance to Thelemites everywhere. The original material continually offers up new gems. One reader of the preview copy commented, “Every time I read the articles, I find something new”. And then there’s the brand-new material:
*A 45-page essay on Jerry’s emotional and spiritual struggles after his beloved teacher Grady Louis McMurtry died. It illuminates the Magical Thesis, the Caliphate, and the Oath of the Abyss
“Admittedly, in August of 1985, I went into a total emotional tailspin. Like a child without a father, I felt lost thinking about Grady’s death. I had no direction and I couldn’t seem to focus.”
*The astrological birth charts of 42 prominent occultists (mainly Thelemites)
*28 pages of Jerry’s personal photos throughout his life
*and more!
We undertook Cornelia Cornucopia as a labor of love. It’s both a tribute to Jerry and a gift for all humanity in the New Aeon. We hope you relish this new book as much as we do.

Out of print first hardback edition, limited to 350 copies only. Published by Kamuret Press 2021.
Condition: Fine, unread copy. Extremely minor crease to top right dustwrapper, otherwise completely pristine.
Edited, annotated and introduced by Richard Kaczynski, this edition far surpasses that found in the Collected Works: red and black ink has been employed to capture the feel of the 1904 edition; a 50 page introduction by Crowley’s foremost biographer introduces the reader to the many themes to be found throughout the book; finally, copious end-notes further elucidate concepts and ideas in need of clarification.
From the introduction:
‘The Sword of Song is arguably the greatest story never told. It is a book of firsts: his first manifesto, his first talismanic book, his first mystical essays, his first nod to sexual mysteries, and an enticing preview of what was to come in The Book of the Law, the spirit-writing that would form the cornerstone of his philosophy’.
