Review
An enormously funny and satisfying satire. --The Spectator
As hilarious as a book can be... The Magic Christian is one of those books that has long warranted a reissue and now that it s here you should all make haste and snap one up... A rare gem, one to be sought out and one to be held dear. --Bookmunch
An authentic artist, a true original. --The Guardian
From the Back Cover
One of the funniest, cruelest, and most savagely revealing books about American life ever written, The Magic Christian has been called Terry Southern's masterpiece.Guy Grand is an eccentric billionaire--the last of the big spenders--determined to create disorder in the material world and willing to spare no expense to do it. Leading a life full of practical jokes and madcap schemes, his ultimate goal is to prove his theory that there is nothing so degrading or so distasteful that someone won't do it for money. In Guy Grand's world, everyone has a price, and he is all too willing to pay it.
