THE REAL STORY

London - 1749

Advertisements were placed throughout London describing impossible feats of conjuring to be performed at the renowned Haymarket Theatre. 

In attendance were men and ladies of title, upper-class patrons, and nefarious denizens of England.

The events that unfolded that night, became a powerful criticism of the Age of Enlightenment.

"

"I've been reading The Bottle Conjuror, and it's quite a ride! The plot is fabulous, the book is beautifully written, and the historical details of 18th-century London are fascinating throughout. How can I have been drawn in by the possibility of a human disappearing into a wine bottle? Preposterous, yet I kept imagining it, kept thinking it was going to happen. As with any great book, the magic is in the prose."

John Thorndike, author of Another Way Home

magic

    is as fine as a spider's web.”
