Magic by G. K. Chesterton
"Magic" by G. K. Chesterton is a comedy play written in 1913. The story centers on a conjurer whose tricks spark conflict between belief and rationalism. When a young woman insists his magic is real and her skeptical brother cannot explain the illusions, the brother descends into madness. A duke, doctor, and priest must persuade the conjurer to reveal his secrets to restore sanity. This fantastical comedy explores truth, faith, and the
boundaries between illusion and reality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
