Aleister Crowley, founder of the English-speaking branch of the Ordo Templi Orientis and of a short-lived commune (the "Abbey of Thelema") in Sicily, wrote poetry (anthologized in 1917 in "The Oxford Book of English Mystical Verse") and novels ("Diary of a Drug Fiend" (1922) and "Moonchild" (1929)). Crowley died in 1947. His autobiography, "The Confessions of Aleister Crowley", republished in 1969, attracted much attention. "The Encyclopedia of Fantasy" describes Crowley's fiction and his manuals on the occult as examples of "lifestyle fantasy".
