The City of Hermes - by John Michael Greer (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A collection of essays on magic and occultism.

The essays and articles collected in this volume sum up the first not-quite-decade of John Michael Greer's career.

While they cover a range of subjects, all of them share a common theme, and were shaped by certain experiences that remade his spiritual life just before the first of them was written.

They record a remarkable period in the life of a scholar, and will provide inspiration and entertainment to students of the occult as well as anyone interested in magic or writing.
