Books Descriptions
This daring literary thriller, rich with eroticism and suspense, is one of John
Fowles's best-loved and bestselling novels and has contributed significantly to
his international reputation as a writer of the first degree. At the center of The
Magus is Nicholas Urfe, a young Englishman who accepts a teaching position on
a remote Greek island, where he befriends a local millionaire. The friendship
soon evolves into a deadly game, in which reality and fantasy are deliberately
manipulated, and Nicholas finds that he must fight not only for his sanity but
for his very survival.
