THE MAGIKER

Charles Dennis

Harris Strider, a psychiatrist in contemporary New York City, treats a socialite whose body seems to be inhabited by the soul of a young Jewish girl who died a hundred years ago in Russia's Pale of Settlement.

Strider falls in love with the young girl and in an attempt to set her free, plunges headlong into a dangerous world of mysticism, Kabbalah, and a mysterious figure known as the Magiker Rebbe. The Magiker will make you think twice about the possibilities of reincarnation-and a love beyond time. Little wonder that Julian Fellowes, creator of Downton Abbey, calls The Magiker, "a brilliantly researched and wonderful read, especially if you're a romantic."

Comments

Charles Dennis is one of my favorite writers. The Magiker is partially his tribute to Elmore Leonard, with a healthy portion of Mr. Dennis's own sense of irony and, of course, his distinctive humor.

Mysticism, romance, and humor are all between the covers of this new book by Charles Dennis. Not easy to accomplish all three at the same time, like juggling an apple, a banana, and a fretsaw, but he's done it.

Charles Dennis has taken the psychological thriller and woven into it a time-travel story of history and ritual and the power of love to survive anything—including death. It is a brilliantly researched and wonderful read, especially if you're a romantic. As I am.

Oy, a sight to behold, le dernier cri! That's the story Charles Dennis has offered up to us. He pulls us deeper and deeper into the arcana of Jewish mysticism. With this plunge into the netherworld, Dennis gives us a fascinating story. And if you think you're alone out there, if you don't read this book, you will be.
