I am not the type to write letters. But I was so amazed by this book, which I bought during the
COVID pandemic, that I wrote David an email which I will use as my review:
Dear David,
I recently purchased your latest book, Interpreting Magic. I also attended your live lecture
last year. I just wanted to thank you for your amazing generosity with the quality of material you
have shared with the magic community. Your lecture was amazing and your book is equally amazing.
Normally, it would have taken me months to get through your book. However, as I currently
do not have a commute, as we are all working from home, I am using that extra time to work my way
through your book, one trick and one interview at a time. It has been an extremely pleasant relief
in these stressful times. I also now have some magic arts and crafts work to do as well, thanks to
you, so that will keep me busy and prevent me from annoying my family.
Anyway, I just
wanted to let you know what a wonderful gift you have given all of us with this latest work of
yours. It really is magnificent and I have a hard time believing you released a single tome with
effect after effect, all with such high quality. You are one incredibly creative and prolific guy.
Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart.
Best Regards,
