A young Englishman, Nicholas Erfe, decides to fill a vacant position as a teacher on a distant Greek island, rather than forget about his unhappy job and avoid everyday troubles. On Yogo's island, his friendship with a millionaire-spreader turns into a secretive and deadly relationship, full of cruelty, violence, peace and evil. Because of this, as Nicholas becomes more deeply drawn into the psychological game of the trickster, it becomes increasingly difficult for him to separate the past from the present day, fantasy from reality. You must fight with your spirit to fight for the ability to maintain a healthy heart and simply live. John Fowles masterfully lays out a meticulous exploration of the complexities of the control of the human mind: a kaleidoscope of the anxious, the whining and the melancholy, which transforms the novel “The Magician” into a masterpiece of world literature.
