Description
He emerged from a cloud of smoke in a caftan and fez: half magus and half mirage. In that moment, the power and allure of Moorish regalia was fully revealed. The fez, or tarboosh, is a brimless cone-shaped flat-crowned hat usually with a tassel. Proudly worn by Hakim Bey, it was both symbol and sorcery. No one (not even Boris Karloff in The Mummy) did more to make the fez the headgear of the supernally hip. [...] When next I visited, Hakim Bey happily showed off a Snakes and Ladders game a friend had found for him in a resale shop.
