A propos de cet article

The Magic Christian by Terry Southern (First US Edition) Firm square copy with minor rubbing to corners and spine ends. Minor wear to edges and spine ends and slight dust soiling. Not price-clipped, in clear protective cover. First US edition, stated first printing. About an odd billionaire who spends most of his time playing elaborate practical jokes on people. It is known for bringing Southern to the attention of filmmaker Stanley Kubrick, who had received a copy as a gift from Peter Sellers, and subsequently hired him as co-writer for Dr. Strangelove (1964) when Kubrick decided to make that film a black comedy/satire, rather than a straightforward thriller. In 1969, The Magic Christian was made into a film starring Peter Sellers and Ringo Starr.
