Product description

Nicholas urfe, an oxford graduate who is recovering from the intellectual exhaustion of his era, goes to a remote greek island as an english teacher to escape the gloom of england and love. He meets the enigmatic millionaire conchis at a time when he was having difficult days and his dreams of becoming a poet had faded. The magician is like a metaphysical amusement train wandering through the labyrinths of the human mind. In these labyrinths, the gray area between reality and fiction is blurred by our protagonist. As a result of the eerie events that follow one another, love and betrayal, urfe finds himself in a situation where he is suspicious of everything, including his own sanity.

In a story that makes various references to mythological elements and shakespeare's famous play, the tempest, john fowles masterfully explores the futility of war, the tranquility of a mediterranean island, the complex structure of the human mind, the nature of the male-female relationship, and the concepts of god and freedom. Starting from the belief that true freedom can only be achieved by knowing oneself, the relationships between dreams and real experiences are strikingly staged by conchis, fowles' prospero, with a series of illusions, masks, and performances. In the magician, the threat humanity faces is hidden as much within the walls of one's own consciousness as it is within the walls of western culture. This is a journey to a new level of consciousness, achievable through the efforts of individuals who discover they have the freedom to distance themselves from the behavioral patterns imposed by the social structures of the culture they were born into, like urfe. The magician, which is on the list of the best hundred works written in english in the 20th century by random house, is a literary tale about the difficulties of achieving personal freedom and self-discovery.
