Lev Grossman, the book critic for Time magazine, and author of the bestselling novel Codex, reads from and discusses his new novel The Magicians, a thrilling and original coming-of-age novel about a young man practicing magic in the real world. At once psychologically piercing and magnificently absorbing, The Magicians boldly moves into uncharted literary territory, imagining magic as practiced by real people, with their capricious desires and volatile emotions. Grossman creates an utterly original world in which good and evil aren’t black and white, love and sex aren’t simple or innocent, and power comes at a terrible price.
($25.95) Viking ISBN #978-0-670-02055-3. You can visit Lev Grossman’s official web site as well.
