When Bennett first read All and Everything: Beelzebub’s Tales to His Grandson in 1948, he was convinced that it would have a powerful impact on all who came across it. He regarded it as a work of superhuman genius, containing expressions of reality which, by their very nature, were bound to make severe demands on any reader. With Gurdjieff’s approval, he undertook a series of lectures in London, between 1949 and 1974, focusing on the essential meaning of Beelzebub’s Tales. Those talks have been collected here. –“Gurdjieff’s elaborate symbolism, uncouth neologisms, and changes of terminology were not adopted to mislead and distract his followers, but to ensure that they would make the effort to discover the meanings for themselves.”
