Produktbeschreibung

At midnight on the historic night of July 29, 1971, High Priest Anton LaVey sat down with journalist Jack Fritscher in the dramatic sanctuary of his Church of Satan in San Francisco to speak frankly about the role of the Satanic Church and Satanism in the ongoing revolution around sex, race, and gender. This seminal interview, conducted in the fifth Satanic Year, is the first and earliest in-depth interview given by Anton LaVey whose Satanic Bible was published only two years before in 1969. Marcello Truzzi wrote in Fate magazine: "This is the most candid and informative interview that Anton LaVey has given anyone for publication to date."

LaVey and Fritscher hit it off. LaVey responds graciously, humorously, and definitively about how and why he founded his Church while he addresses American religions, white wicca, the Manson Family, and the death of Jayne Mansfield. He sets the record straight declaring to Fritscher that he played the Devil in Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby.

Growing more golden over the past fifty years, this interview has entered the classic "Canon of Satanic Literature" in the Church of Satan. Certainly, the candid conversation catches one of the most intriguing men of the 20th century around the moment when the Swinging 1960s became the Titanic 1970s that helped shaped the myth, magic, and mysticism of our new century. Here is the truth of what Anton LaVey said. He himself frequently endorsed the accuracy. This is the original question and answer format of the interview.

Autorenporträt

With his first articles on gay culture published in 1962, Jack Fritscher, the founding San Francisco editor-in-chief of the iconic "Drummer" magazine and the longtime keeper of the "Drummer" Archives, is the award-winning author of twenty books including high-profile eyewitness memoirs of his lover Robert Mapplethorpe, his friend Larry ("The Leatherman's Handbook") Townsend, and his "gentleman caller" Tennessee Williams. Fritscher at eighty-three reaches across sixty years of gay history into his journals, heart, and memory for our lost midcentury world as he did in "Some Dance to Remember: A Memoir-Novel of San Francisco 1970-1982." His new "Profiles in Gay Courage" is holistic gay history-relevant to the present time-written by a keen eyewitness journalist. The masterful writing in this factual memoir of life with his friends is a treat for readers who wish to enjoy personal stories ticking behind famous names pegged on the gay history timeline.
