Description
Publishers' Original Binding, Signed, With Dustwrapper
The first impression of the revised edition of Fowles's novel, published eleven years after the first edition. Flat signed by Fowles to the title page
In the publisher's original unclipped dust wrapper.
'The Magus' is John Fowles's postmodern novel about Nicholas Urfe, a young man who is teaching English on a small Greek island and becomes embroiled in the psychological illusions of a master trickster.
Considered an example of metafiction, this was Fowles first written novel, but his third to be published.
A lovely signed work by Fowles, the renowned British novelist of works positioned between modernism and postmodernism, best known for 'The French Lieutenant's Woman', 'A Maggot', and 'The Collector'.
