52 Lovers Through the Looking-Glass by Pepe Carroll - Book

\n

In der Welt des Magie genießen 52 Lovers, Bände 1 und 2, nun den verdienten Status moderner Klassiker. Sechzehn Jahre nach ihrer Veröffentlichung ist Páginas Publishing stolz, diese legendäre Arbeit als 52 Lovers Through the Looking-Glass zu überarbeiten. Sie enthält eine neue, korrigierte und erweiterte Übersetzung der Originalbände sowie unveröffentlichtes Material, das bisher nur wenigen privilegierten Personen bekannt war.

\n

52 Lovers Through the Looking-Glass vereint die ursprünglichen beiden Bände in einzigem Buch. Zunächst einmal werden alle Artikel veröffentlicht, die Pepe Carroll über fast zwanzig Jahre hinweg im berühmten Circular der Madrid Magic School veröffentlicht hat, inklusive. Darüber hinaus enthält das Buch die Beschreibung von zwei der schwierigsten Routinen aus Carrolls Repertoire, deren Geheimnisse bislang unbekannt waren: seine legendäre Würfelroutine und den Auftritt, der ihn 1988 beim FISM Congress in Den Haag zum ersten Mal im Kartenmagie-Wettbewerb mit dem Preis versehen hat! Schließlich enthält das Buch ein Kapitel mit Beispielen von Carrolls berühmter Humor sowie Fotos und Biografien des Künstlers, geschrieben von seinen Kollegen aus der Magie.

\n

Basierend auf seinem Umfang und der Qualität seines Inhalts ist 52 Lovers Through the Looking-Glass bestimmt ein literarisches Klassiker im Bereich spanischen Magie. Vor allem aber ist es ein herzliches und liebloses Hommage an eine der größten Figuren in der Geschichte des spanischen Magie von Spaniens Magie-Community.\n\n
