Book excerpt: "Little Billee is a young English painter with great talent. He and his friends Taffy and the Laird share a studio in a Quartier Latin neighborhood full of artists and musicians, including a German-Polish music teacher named Svengali. The group become acquainted with an artists' model named Trilby, who was orphaned as a child and who works to support her little brother and herself. Trilby is lively, charming, unpretentious, and beautiful, and soon Little Billee is madly in love. When his mother learns that Little Billee intends to marry an artists' model (nude models were almost as socially unacceptable as protitutes) she travels to Paris and tells Trilby that such a marriage would mean ruin for Billee and his family. Trilby promises that she will never see Little Billee again. Soon afterward, Trilby vanishes, leaving Billee sick and distraught. Many years later, Billee and his friends hear of a singer called "La Svengali" who has astonished all of Europe. By attending one of her performances, they learn that "La Svengali" is the wife of the music teacher they knew in the Quartier Latin, trained by him to sing with more technical mastery than anyone has ever heard. When "La Svengali" appears on stage, they see that she is none other than Trilby. Her singing moves the audience to tears, though everyone notices that she moves stiffly and strangely and that her face is as blank as an automaton's. Not until Svengali dies suddenly during a concert is Trilby set free from the hypnotic spell that has controlled her for years.""--Allreaders.com.

Download or read book The Ultimate Svengali Deck Book written by Steve Piers and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-25 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I bought my first Svengali Deck when I was 8 years old. I am now 45 years old and I'm still playing with them. The Svengali Deck is a beautiful piece of magical design, allowing the performer to create incredible magic through very simple mechanics. In this book I have compiled the best advice in setting up, using and handling the Svengali Deck. I share routines that I have used when selling the Svengali Decks at markets and festivals and offer valuable insights in presenting the magic in a way the audience will love. The Svengali Deck may often be marketed as a magic trick for children, but with a bit of magical thinking we can transform it into an essential tool for any magician. The book begins with basic handling techniques and ends with an effect that fills a room. The book transcends the limitations of Svengali and raises the bar, explaining routines that can seem to be nothing short of miracles.
