The Black Pope (Devil's Avenger)
Description
Although this new biography exposes flaws in Anton’s character, especially his propensity for inventing claptrap about himselfand his origins, what remains is the story of an extraordinary innovator, prankster, satirist, and musician: a unique individual who had the effrontery and courage to play the bugaboo of Christianity and to confront purportedly religious,proper, conformist human beings with their hypocrisy. Upon his works and howthey strike you, and upon his influence on thousands of men and women who continue to admire and even revere him, rests the final judgment of the man whoplayed the role of the Devil’s avenger and the “Black Popeâ€: Anton Szandor LaVey.
