《生来有尾:撒旦教创立者安东尼·桑多尔·拉韦的恶魔般生活和罪恶岁月》
A provocative, irreverent biography of Anton Szandor LaVey, founder of the Church of Satan, BORN WITH A TAIL chronicles a time when Americans welcomed a macabre showman into their living rooms via TheTonight Show, before a ginned-up hysteria known as the Satanic Panic would put a target on his shiny, shaven head.
When Anton LaVey burst onto the San Francisco scene right before the Summer of Love, he parlayed his eerie obsessions into a philosophy and lifestyle that capitalized on a New Age rage. With his signature cape, horn-studded hood, and Ming the Merciless beard, LaVey was a media-savvy provocateur who took what he did seriously, but was always in on the joke.
From a spooky old house on an otherwise unremarkable street, he founded the Church of Satan, where young women squirmed nude on the mantel of his ritual chamber as he delivered a doctrine of self-deification and indulgence that combined the writings of Ayn Rand, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Aleister Crowley with the pulpy fictions of H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard.
Later, his bestselling book The Satanic Bible (still in print since 1969) struck an ominous chord with both the hip and the alienated—the fringe dwellers who were goth before there were goths. But LaVey’s influence could be felt far beyond his flock, namely in the nightmarish and supernatural entertainment that dominated pop culture in the 1970s and continues to make an impact today.
He was a musical prodigy who attracted a cluster of stars into his orbit, including Jayne Mansfield and Sammy Davis Jr. But living like a real-life Gomez Addams, complete with a full-grown pet lion, came at an awful price.
Deeply researched and featuring dozens of new interviews, as well as recently unearthed personal correspondence and church records, BORN WITH A TAIL: The Devilish Life and Wicked Times of Anton Szandor LaVey, Founder of the Church of Satan separates the facts from the fabrications of this uniquely American character’s extraordinary life.
一个激进而不敬的《撒旦教会》创始人安托纳·扎诺尔(Anton Szandor LaVey)传记,《Born With a Tail》记录了一个时期,美国人通过《今夜秀》以一种怪异表演者的身份欢迎他进入客厅生活,而一场被称为撒旦恐慌的狂热却在后来将目标对准了他光头的形象。 安托纳·扎诺尔在六十年代夏季度假胜地旧金山一鸣惊人时,他通过一股新纪元的潮流,利用他的诡异癖好将其转变为一种哲学和生活方式。 以蝙蝠帽、镶钻斗篷以及莫尼亚特(Ming the Merciless)式的络腮胡为标志,扎诺尔是一个精于媒体运作的挑衅者,虽然他对自己的行为非常认真,但总是带着玩笑的心态。 他从一个普通的街道上一座诡异的老房子里创办了撒旦教会,在那里年轻的女人们在祭坛的壁炉台上裸体扭动着身体,而他则在那里教导一种自我神圣化和放纵的教义,并将艾尼·罗兰德(Ayn Rand)、弗里德里希·尼采(Friedrich Nietzsche)、阿利斯特·克 Crowley、霍桑·普·洛厄斯特(H.P. Lovecraft)以及罗伯特·E·豪恩(Robert E. Howard)的著作融合在了一起。 其后,他的畅销书《撒旦圣经》(The Satanic Bible),自1969年出版以来就一直被出版商们保留着,并且仍然受到同时代人和失意人的共鸣——那些是哥特族人在之前就已经存在的人。但是扎诺尔的影响远超了他的追随者群体,特别是在70年代主导流行文化的怪诞与超自然娱乐中,并且仍在当今影响深远。 他是一位音乐神童,吸引了一群巨星进入他的圈子,包括贾妮·曼斯菲尔德和萨米·戴维斯(Sammy Davis Jr.)。但像现实生活中的哥西格·阿道夫斯(Gomez Addams)般地生活——还养着一只成年狮子作为宠物——这种生活方式付出了极高的代价。 《Born With a Tail:撒旦教会创始人安托纳·扎诺尔的魔鬼人生与邪恶岁月》一书由深入研究而成,并且引用了数十位新采访者的资料,以及从历史档案中重新挖掘出来的私人信件和教会记录,这部传记将扎诺尔这位独特美国人物非凡一生的事实与虚构区分开来。
