A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Young Jewish immigrant Julius comes of age surrounded by the wild world of 1867 Nebraska. He befriends the mysterious Prophet John, who saves his life when the two are captured by the Ponca Indian tribe. Living as a slave, Julius meets the noble chief Standing Bear and his young daughter, Prairie Flower, with whom he falls in love. Becoming the tribe 's interpreter its speaker his life seems safe and settled.

But Julius has reckoned without the arrival of his older cousin, Alexander who, as the Great Herrmann, is the most famous young magician in America. Nor does he suspect the ultimate consequences of Alex 's affair with Lady-Jane Little Feather, a glamorous and murderous prostitute destined to become the most scandalous woman on two continents.

Filled with adventure, humor, and colorful characters, Magic Words is a riveting adventure about the nature of prejudice, the horror of genocide, and a courageous young man who straddles two worlds to fight for love and freedom.
