A review by pizzacruuuuust
The Magus by John Fowles

4.0

IT ENDED WITH A FREEZE FRAME?!?!


edit: okay I'm coming back to this review with a bit of time and space now. loved the way Greece was described, really felt vivid and there and real.
Loved all the myth and occultism and references to classical literature that I definitely missed, added to the general vibe of the whole thing.
didn't expect really any of the twists and turns and BOY are there a lot of those.

and really thinking about it there was no other way it could have ended. Of course it doesn't matter what happens 10 years from that point in the story. The play is over. There are no more scenes. The audience has packed up and left. It couldn't really have ended any other way


Good god though does Nicolas (and I think John Fowles a little actually) hate women
