Description:The first biography of countercultural novelist and underground philosopher Robert Anton Wilson.“In Gabriel Kennedy, AKA Prop Anon, Wilson has the kind of biographer he deserves.”-Grant Morrison, comic books legend, author of Arkham Asylum, The Invisibles, and Happy! Chapel The Life and Thought Crimes of Robert Anton Wilson is the first biography of the late countercultural novelist and underground philosopher, Robert Anton Wilson.Author with Robert Shea of ILLUMINATUS!—one of American literature’s most notorious novels—Wilson’s life and work were infused with magical insight and strange occurrence, fated traumas and puckish tricksterism. His experiences of paranoia, celestial influence, and conspiracy have come to furnish both speculative thought and fiction with a unique repertoire of thought experiments, while his legacy might be recognized in the work of writers as diverse as Alan Moore, Douglas Rushkoff, and Tom Robbins.In this far-reaching biography, Gabriel Kennedy charts the undergrowth of Wilson’s influence, suggesting that the pulp venues, quack pamphlets, and oddball websites through which his work was usually distributed allowed him to quietly become one of the most prescient American writers of the 20th century, and one of the 21st’s most salient.“..this book is a masterpiece of insight and scholarship. Gabriel Kennedy has successfully navigated the heights and depths of the late Robert Anton Wilson...[it]...captures both the man and the era he embodied.”-Jeffrey Mishlove, Host and Producer of New Thinking Allowed “Gabriel Kennedy's Chapel Perilous is, and will always be, the definitive biography of Robert Anton Wilson, one of the most subversive thinkers of the 20th century. Kennedy deftly unravels the threads of Wilson's complex inner life, shedding light on the inspirations for his revolutionary ideas and assessing RAW's impact on today's popular culture. He also beautifully captures Bob Wilson the man. Standing ovation!”-Richard Metzger, Television Host, Writer, Producer. Creator of Disinformation and Magick Show “Meticulously well-researched, profoundly comprehensive, and compellingly absorbing, Gabriel Kennedy’s long-awaited biography of Robert Anton Wilson will not disappoint. I couldn’t put it down! Most highly recommended!”—David Jay Brown, author of Dreaming Wide Awake and The Illustrated Field Guide to DMT Entities “Writing a comprehensive, human, inclusive, biography for someone as complex as Robert Anton Wilson is a big bite for a writer to attempt. Thankfully, Gabriel Kennedy did not bite off more than he could chew. This book is an invaluable source of information about one of the greatest artists and thinkers of our time. It keeps the lasagna flying!”-Joseph Matheny, Multidisciplinary artist. Author of Ong's Hat: The Beginning, The Liminal CycleWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
