Aleister Crowley was a poet, mountaineer and black magician.

In some ways, he looms larger and more sinister today than at the time of his death in 1947.

Frances Donnelly tries to disinter the facts from the fiction obscuring the life of the man who delighted in being styled 'the wickedest man in the world'.

With help from:

Arthur Calder-Marshall
Robin Cecil
Francis King
Angela York

Plus the voice of the 'Master' himself.

Producer: Graham Tayar

First broadcast on Â鶹Éç Radio 4 in April 1986.
