Maugham's magician character, Oliver Haddo, is based on Aleister Crowley, a widely known writer, occultist, and ceremonial magician of the early twentieth century. However, the character is thought to be more of a caricature of Crowley than a true depiction. The intrigue begins when Haddo seduces a woman who is engaged to be married and continues with revenge, magic, and murder. This Gothic horror novel is a must-read for those who enjoy flawed characters and a page-turning plotline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 22, 1905\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45627275870252,"sku":"9781646796977","price":37.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/smartsupplydeals.com\/products\/the-magician-hardcover-2","provider":"Smart supply deals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
