Read by Delmar H. Dolbier
The Magician is a novel by British author W. Somerset Maugham, originally published in 1908. In this tale, the magician Oliver Haddo, a caricature of Aleister Crowley, attempts to create life. Crowley wrote a critique of this book under the pen name Oliver Haddo, where he accused Maugham of plagiarism. Maugham wrote The Magician in London, after he had spent some time living in Paris, where he met Aleister Crowley. The novel was later republished with a foreword by Maugham entitled "A Fragment of Autobiography". (Wikipedia)

Subject: Quite Something
This is truly a delightful presentation. The reader obviously knows his craft. The reading is rich in texture, mood and character through and through. At once the listener is impelled from the act of hearing the story, to seeing it vividly blossom.
A hearty "well-done," and the highest of recommendations.
