I read The Magus when I was about 15...I'm 69 now.
I read it over a few successive weekends anchored in a cabin cruiser off Big Island at Lake Minnetonka so the environment was perfect to absorb Fowles.
3 years later the movie was released...the settings, the actors, are spot on. At best to condense this novel into a script is a challenge similar to David Lynch's attempt at Dune. Great books...a challenge to translate the stories into a script but both capture the essence.
