Synopsis

Traditional Qabalistic sources (or Cabalistic, or, indeed, Kabbalistic—listen to this book to find out what the difference is...we know you've always wondered!) tend to be a bit, er, dry. Lon Milo DuQuette spices up the Qabalah and makes it come alive, restoring the joy of learning the fundamentals of this admittedly arcane system by using simple, amusing anecdotes and metaphors. This account, written psuedepigraphically (fictitiously attributed to a supposed authority), allows DuQuette as Rabbi Lamed Ben Clifford to soar to outrageous heights and, when necessary, stand apart from the silliness to highlight the golden eggs of Qabalistic wisdom nested therein. Sure to be a revelation to those who think that learning about the Qabalah needs to be tedious and serious, The Chicken Qabalah of Rabbi Lamed Ben Clifford shows that great truths can be transmitted through the medium of laughter.

Excellent book. Books on Qabalah get easily nerdy, but this one is kept simple. I recommend it to any newbie. It's also funny. You can read some hilarious parodies on nerdy Qabalists. Haven't laughed that well for a long time.......more

First, a disclaimer - I am a bona fide graduate of ZIPY and have studied under the good Rabbi. That said, this is the most approachable, and understandable introduction to one of the most complex areas of all Western Hermeticism.......more

Goodreads review by Aaron on September 15, 2011

The hands down, best Qabalah book out there. If you would like to have a clear understanding of the concepts of Qabalah then read this book. There's none of the confusing, word heavy, Elizabethan language to be found here, it's just real experience laid out in a plain and easy to understand fashion.......more

A light-hearted and easily accessible work investigating the occult tradition of Qabalah, looks at the tree of life and other mystical traditions that characterise this belief system. An interesting investigation of mysticism and its practice.......more
