Adapted from a short story by
Steven Millhauser (winner of the 1997 Pulitzer Prize for his
novel "Martin Dressler: The Tale of an American Dreamer"),
the yarn centres on a stage magician whose powers are so
extraordinary they eventually threaten to subvert the power
structure of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. A bizarre story of
intrigue, magic and murder in turn-of-the-century Vienna. |
