Synopsis
"Steensen's sources are antiquarian archives, journals, magic acts: what has been saved and lost and saved again. [She moves] among materials of our checkered past--magicians, changelings, George Washington, seances, Cotton Mather, the Davenport Brothers, W. C. Williams, the spirit of Charles Olson. Through imaginative exorcism she brings back into our perception the experience of the invisible dead"
--Susan Howe.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An alternative history, offering alternative myths, of the founding of the United States of America. Where religion must be erased and where industry is a given, magic steps in with its hoaxes and promises. In A Magic Book, Sasha Steensen deftly inscribes, using treatise, factoid, rhyme, and timeline, the choices we have made, culturally, against a belief in invisibility: What we have not seen, must not be, "never harm nor spell nor charm." An alternative history, offering alternative myths, of the founding of the United States of America, where religion must be erased and where industry is a given, magic steps in with its hoaxes and promises.
