[Please see my five images of the actual book.] "Sulivan is surely one of the great Catholic novelists of our time. § [T]his short novel, charged with far denser content than its brevity might indicate, is packed with exciting and profound ideas. But it also tells a compelling and suspenseful story, vividly evoking place and persons in a polyphonic composition. Its layers of narration unfold the outer and inner events of a radical moral crisis and its resolution forming in a complex design of great beauty."---Denise Levertov.

Pictorial Cover. Zustand: Good. First Edition. viii, 280 pages, text illustrations. Old names on front endpaper, wear at top and bottom of spine and covers. A classic conjuring book. Robert-Houdin (1805 - 1871) was a French watchmaker, magician and illusionist, widely recognized as the father of the modern style of conjuring. He transformed magic from a pastime for the lower classes, seen at fairs, to an entertainment for the wealthy, which he offered in a theatre opened in Paris, a legacy preserved by the tradition of modern magicians. The pseudonym name Harry Houdini is a reference to his mentor in magic, French magician Robert-Houdin.
