Called The Black Pope by many of his followers, Anton La Vey began the road to High Priesthood of the Church of Satan when he was only 16 years old and an organ player in a carnival."On Saturday night I would see men lusting after halfnaked girls dancing at the carnival, and on Sunday morning when I was playing the organ for tent-show evangelists at the other end of the carnival lot, I would see these same men sitting in the pews with their wives and children, asking God to forgive them and purge them of carnal desires. And the next Saturday night they'd be back at The carnival or some other place of indulgence. ... |

A staggering and audacious undertaking - seeking, in Milton's words, to justify the ways of God to men - Paradise Lost has been revered since its initial publication, inspiring writers from Mary ... |

Читателят се пита какъв е този свят, който е описан - постапокалиптичен или все още несътворен? Свят, в който пространствата изглеждат все още (или вече) неразчленени, свят, в който гравитацията постоянно изменя на логиката и затова границите между аз и ти, и то, и нас са дотолкова променливи, че стават невалидни. И защо в този свят няма хора, а котки, гълъби, тигри, катерици, маймуни? И с кого разговаря ... |
