God Is Alive, Magic Is Afoot is a poem/mantra from Cohen's second novel, Beautiful Losers. The piece is an extraordinary flash of optimism, of hope, of the celebration of a life force that is both God and Magic. It remains one of the most accessible pieces of writing from Leonard Cohen and is certainly one of his most beautiful works. The illustrations have been specially commissioned to complement the text, and the result is not only a beautiful book that every Cohen fan will want to own, but one that will surely bring him to an even wider audience.

Hoodoo's first grimoire and spell-book, originally edited by the famed folklorist and novelist Zora Neale Hurston, holds a place that no other conjure book can claim, for it provides the modern practitioner with practical training in authentic New Orleans rootwork, circa 1928.Although the author was certainly not Marie Laveau, the more than 50 rites and rituals in this volume present the classic hoodoo spells of the Crescent City, using herbs, candles, incense, powders, baths, and mojo hands to get your way in matters of luck, love, money, family, friendship, protection, uncrossing, and cursing.On the 90th anniversary of its first publication, the Lucky Mojo Curio Company is proud to present a new edition of this seminal text, restored and revised by catherine yronwode. Black and White Magic is truly the one book that every conjure doctor must posses!
