Included are Juste's three books of poetry, an original play, and many other interesting works that, until now, have been largely unavailable, scattered as they are throughout long-forgotten journals from the early- to mid-twentieth century. The Collected Writings of Michael Juste includes the definitive editions of all the author's published works, now printed for the first time in two uniform volumes.

Contains the first six issues of this 9short-lived) periodical put together as a single volume. "For many years occultism has been the hunting ground for confusing systems, unworkable techniques and grotesque interpretations of those levels beyond man's normal and limited vision. Therefore we hope whenever possible to publish and review such subjects as may disentangle the vast phantasmagoria misnamed occultism and bring a sense of proportion to these secret sciences of the illuminated". Pp.412,slight toning to endpapers. Cream paper-covered spine a little soiled, black cloth boards. Scarce. G+. ** "Michael Juste" (Michael Houghton), the editor of this journal, was a poet, Crowleyite, publisher, and owner of the Atlantis Book Shop in London. In 1927 (as "Michael Juste") he had published his An Occult Autobiography, recounting his occult explorations (with Paul Brunton, Theosophy and Crowley) to that date. This journal, published more than 20 years later, was filled with the writings of the aging post-War, post-Crowley, post-Theosophy, literate and sophisticated British occultists of the period, all dabbling eruditely in art, literature and magic. Houghton's editorials in each issue, reveal his own lack of satisfaction with teachers of wisdom and the direction taken by current occultism generally. In the first issue, he wrote, rather snobbishly: "The broad theme of occultism has thus been presented in this journal from many angles. The editor, who has been a close student of occult matters for many years, first sets forth his general answer to the query of his title: How Important is the Study of Occultism? He dissociates himself and the Occult Observer from peasant superstitions and from the shallow exploiters of the arcane, and claims that occultism is only for the strong and passionate and that often the occult powers work unconsciously and through artistic genius." .(IAPSOP).
