Pan’s Daughter is Nevill Drury’s study of Rosaleen Norton, the Australian artist, occultist and magical practitioner often remembered as the “Witch of Kings Cross”. The book explores Norton’s art, magical beliefs, visionary practice, trance work, relationship with Pan, and the controversy surrounding her life and work in mid-century Sydney.
Combining biography, occult history and reproductions of Norton’s work, this is a key title for readers interested in Australian occultism, visionary art, paganism, sex magic, bohemian subculture and the magical underground of Kings Cross.
