World Of Wonders
by Davies, Robertson
World of Wonders is the third novel in Robertson Davies' Deptford Trilogy. First published by Macmillan of Canada in 1975, this novel focuses on the life-story of the fictional conjuror Magnus Eisengrim. Eisengrim (also known by at least four other names throughout the trilogy) tells the story of his life to a group of filmmakers who are producing a biographical film about the great magician Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin.
