Around 1921, Crowley wrote a short commentary about each chapter, assisting the reader in the Qabalistic interpretation. </p><p>Several chapters and a photograph in the book reference <a href="/wiki/Leila_Waddell" title="Leila Waddell">Leila Waddell</a>, whom Crowley called Laylah, and who, as Crowley's influential <a href="/wiki/Babalon" title="Babalon">Scarlet Woman</a>, acted as his <a href="/wiki/Muse" class="mw-redirect" title="Muse">muse</a> during the writing process of this volume. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Details">Details</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Book_of_Lies_(Crowley)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Details"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The title page contains the following paraphrase of <a href="/wiki/Alfred,_Lord_Tennyson" title="Alfred, Lord Tennyson">Alfred, Lord Tennyson</a>: </p> <blockquote><div class="poem"> <p>Break, break, break<br /> At the foot of thy stones, O Sea!<br /> And I would that I could utter<br /> The thoughts that arise in me!<sup id="cite_ref-Lies_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Lies-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> </div></blockquote> <p>An explanation of the title on the facing page ends with the sentence, "There is no joke or subtle meaning in the publisher's imprint."<sup id="cite_ref-Lies_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Lies-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Yet according to <a href="/wiki/Robert_Anton_Wilson" title="Robert Anton Wilson">Robert Anton Wilson</a> in his 1977 book <i><a href="/wiki/Cosmic_Trigger_I:_The_Final_Secret_of_the_Illuminati" class="mw-redirect" title="Cosmic Trigger I: The Final Secret of the Illuminati">Cosmic Trigger I: The Final Secret of the Illuminati</a></i>: </p> <blockquote><p>This might have been a veiled warning about what will follow, but is actually the first lie in the book; occult historian Francis King has carefully determined the date on the imprint is inaccurate by at least a year.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>In his <i><a href="/wiki/The_Confessions_of_Aleister_Crowley" title="The Confessions of Aleister Crowley">Confessions</a></i>, Crowley discusses how the book was to lead to his joining <a href="/wiki/Ordo_Templi_Orientis" title="Ordo Templi Orientis">Ordo Templi Orientis</a>. He wrote each chapter at lunch or dinner "by the aid of <a href="/wiki/Dionysos" class="mw-redirect" title="Dionysos">Dionysos</a>", with one chapter that was especially troubling.

I protested that I knew no such secret. He said, "But you have printed it in the plainest language." I said that I could not have done so because I did not know it. He went to the bookshelves and, taking out a copy of <i>The Book of Lies</i>, pointed to a passage in the despised chapter. It instantly flashed upon me. The entire symbolism, not only of freemasonry but of many other traditions, blazed upon my spiritual vision. From that moment the O.T.O. assumed its proper importance in my mind.
