A new hardcover classic for fans of "Magistral. The Main Trend." Impeccable style, conciseness, tactile materials, colored endpapers, and a drawing on the edge.

John Fowles is a writer who became a classic even in his lifetime. In his youth, he taught English on the Greek island of Spetses. It was there that the plot of the spoof novel "Playing God," which entered the history of world literature under the title "The Magus," was born.

The young teacher Nicolas Erfe flees the drabness of his life and a dangerous love affair to the island of Phraxos in Greece. There, he falls under the influence of the enigmatic millionaire Maurice Conchis. "The Magus" starts the show. The ghost of his dead fiancée appears for dinner. A satyr rushes past, pursuing a nymph... Nicolas Erfe, like Orpheus, must descend into Hell, overcome temptations, and save his Eurydice.

The boundaries between actors and audience, stage and reality, blur. What is this? A performance, a psychological experiment, or a sophisticated torture? The full truth will be revealed to those who reach the very end.
