It can be said with little dispute and no exaggeration that, among 20th Century intellectuals, no one was farther right on the political spectrum than Julius Evola. The video presented below is a captivating introduction to Evola's philosophy by Jonathan Bowden.
A transcript of the lecture can be found here:

"Julius Evola was somebody who rejected, purposefully and metaphysically, the modern world."

Certainly his ideas are not above reproach and should, as with any philosopher, be read with a critical mind and spiritual discernment.

"My principles are only those that before the French Revolution every well-born person considered healthy and normal."

Julius Evola, Rome, October 1951

“Liberalism, then democracy, then
subsequently socialism, radicalism, and, finally, Communism and
Bolshevism, appear in history as no more than degrees of the same evil,
stages in which each prepares the next in the totality of the process of
downfall.”

For those primarily interested in his political works, I suggest Revolt Against the Modern World, Men Among the Ruins, and Ride the Tiger. These volumes are included in the pdf linked to, above.
