Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell

In an alternate nineteenth-century England where practical magic has faded into scholarship, the reclusive Mr Norrell revives the art and reluctantly takes on the gifted, impulsive Jonathan Strange as his pupil. Their alliance reshapes politics, war and society, but competing visions of power drive them toward rivalry. Susanna Clarke blends historical wit, dark fairy lore and elegant prose into a monumental novel about ambition, knowledge and the dangerous return of enchantment.
