THE MAGICIAN'S WIFE |
BLOOMSBURY (18 Sep 97) |
|
| |
|
Set in the late 1850s in France and Algeria, this is the story of Emmeline Lambert, married to an illusionist sent by Napoleon III to persuade the Arabs - poised for holy war and in thrall to charismatic leaders - that France's might and magic are the greater. Emmeline begins to feel like an illusionist herself, when she dazzles the Emperor and then sheds her inhibitions along with her patriotism. |
