friedoysterskins78 's review for:
The Magus
by John Fowles
“I don’t believe a word. But go on.”
I was filled with a sweet, impotent rage for most of the story, but towards the end, I began to feel something else. I went from fantasizing about revenge and the exercise of brutality, wishing for everything to be burnt to the ground, to the hope that the main character would utilize his suffering to change his ways.
If you’re looking for a novel that delves into topics such as, the nature of consent, medical ethics, moral ambiguity, sex and masculinity, deception, and psychological torture, then this is a good book for you.
