Summary

The Illusionist is a story about two people whose paths cross. While touring concert halls, theatres and pubs, an aging, down-on-his-luck magician encounters a young girl at the start of her life's journey. Alice is s teenage girl with all her capacity for childish wonder still intact. She plays at being a woman without realizing the day to stop pretending is fast approaching. She doesn't know yet that she loves the illusionist like she would a father ; he already knows that he loves her as he would a daughter. Their destinies will collide, but nothing -- not even magic or the power of illusion -- can stop the voyage of discovery
