Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Frieda Harris
[EXTRACT]
[5 May 1942]
I must have been in a strangely good temper yesterday morning, for I liked many of those pictures quite a lot . . . Observe—and this goes for Andrew Marvell too—the lack of clean-cut idea. I do not mean anything intellectual, or capable of intellectual expression. But these pictures are living beings, not viable, as biologists say. They are not individuals with a history and a future. They are phenomena arising from the clash of blind forces. They have just the interest that one has in a queer coincidence, or a picturesque accident.
