Book Description :

Even so powerful a first novel as The Collector does not prepare the reader for the manifold, compulsive fascination of John Fowles's eagerly awaited second novel, The Magus.
The Magus (which may be translated Magician or Juggler) is remarkable not only for the way in which it enlarges and develops the underlying themes of The Collector; it is in itself a towering accomplishment of entertainment, a virtuoso feat of storytelling. As the elaborate tableaux of The Magus unfold, from fin de siecle propriety to wartime atrocity, from modern bohemian London to the lovely yet somehow sinister Greek island of Phraxos, Fowles never loses sight of the artist's prime responsibility to delight as he sheds light, to give pleasure as he sounds the well of reality for its darker meanings.
This is not to say that The Magus is a simple book. The Magus is also a love story - a love story as tempestuous and compellingly beautiful as love between two human beings can be. Indeed, The Magus is a maze, a dark door. Once through that door, however, the reader is drawn on by the story, by its strangeness, by its fascination, by its intricately woven web of suspense until he has followed the labyrinth to its center and its compelling climax. Magnificent entertainment, an unforgettable love story, a brilliant excursion through the mirror of appearance, The Magus will surely confirm John Fowles's place as one of the most gifted and, in the words of Gore Vidal, "one of the most alarmingly original writers to come out of England in this generation."
The Magus was originally published in 1965 & reissued in a revised version 12 years later. The story of Nicholas Urfe & his friendship with a demonic millionaire which leads to an elaborate series of staged hallucinations, riddles & psychological traps, The Magus endures as the most enigmatic & magical novel in the Fowles canon, a work rich in symbols, conundrums & labyrinthine twists of events.
