In Edward Prime-Stevenson's 'The Square of Sevens: An Authoritative Method of Cartomancy with a Prefatory Note', readers are introduced to a detailed exploration of the art of cartomancy, a practice of using playing cards to gain insight into the future or one's inner self. The book presents a systematic method of interpreting the symbolism and meanings behind each card, providing a comprehensive guide for enthusiasts of divination. Prime-Stevenson's literary style is scholarly and thorough, delving deep into the history and significance of cartomancy within a literary context. The author's attention to detail and expertise in the subject matter make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the occult or esoteric traditions. Prime-Stevenson's meticulous approach to cartomancy sets this book apart from other texts on the subject, making it a must-read for serious students of divination and fortune-telling. 'The Square of Sevens' is a fascinating and informative exploration of the practice of cartomancy, offering readers a glimpse into the mystical world of interpreting playing cards for insights and guidance.

Edward Prime-Stevenson (1858–1942), an American author, made notable contributions to late 19th and early 20th-century literature with his pioneering work in homosexual literature and his writings on various subjects under multiple pseudonyms. His body of work encompasses fiction, travel writing, essays, and music criticism, reflecting a versatile literary palette. His seminal work, 'The Square of Sevens: An Authoritative Method of Cartomancy with a Prefatory Note,' serves as a significant example of his non-fiction foray into the esoteric practices of cartomancy, offering a structured system for fortune-telling through cards which is reflective of the era's fascination with the occult. Perhaps one of his most renowned novels is 'Imre: A Memorandum,' penned under the pseudonym Xavier Mayne, which is among the earliest explicit American gay novels that addressed homosexual love and desires in a direct, sympathetic, and authentic manner. This novel, alongside 'The Intersexes: A History of Similisexualism as a Problem in Social Life,' established Prime-Stevenson as a brave and avant-garde figure in queer literature. His astute observation of social mores and elegant prose places him within a tradition of writers who deftly navigate both the visible and unseen currents of their times. Educated in law but dedicated to the pen, Prime-Stevenson's literary legacy offers an invaluable window into the complexities and challenges faced by homosexual men during a period when such subjects were considered taboo.
