I think that is one of the strengths of, Perdurabo, and why it is so engaging and interesting to read. Kaczynski doesn't try to minimize or downplay the fantastical side of the story. He just takes it seriously, plays it straight, and allows the reader to make up their own mind.How much of his magical achievements are we right to really doubt? It is curious - and admirable - how Kaczynski simply relates and doesn't judge...
In other Crowley biographies that I've read the authors aren't prepared to take this approach. They either hold the subject at arms length (Sutin) or employ a combination of ridicule and dismissive humour (Hutchinson).
Glad you are enjoying it so far, Le Fanu.
