Hitler's Priestess book cover

Hitler's Priestess

Savitri Devi, the Hindu-Aryan Myth, and Neo-Nazism

Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke

Explore the origins and impact of neo-Nazism with Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke's fascinating deep dive into the life of one of fascism's most creative minds. Savitri Devi's influence on these groups has been continuous since the mid-1960s and this book takes an in-depth look at how and why she became a fixture in the shadowy neo-Nazi world. Her unique blend of Aryan supremacism, anti-Semitism, Hinduism, social Darwinism, and animal rights has resulted in powerful and curious alliances in radical ideology. As the earliest Holocaust denier, and the first to suggest that Adolf Hitler was an avatar, Devi's status as a prophetess helped redirect authentic religious energies in the service of regenerate fascism.
