STRANGE MAGIC falls flat in attempt to tune up fairy tales
Strange Magic is strange all right, but hardly magical. An oddly tone-deaf jukebox musical and computer-animated fantasy (** out of four; rated PG; opens Friday nationwide), its target audience seems unclear. Kids arent likely to know or care much.

Susanna Clarkes Magic Book
It is impossible to read Susanna Clarkes Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, as I have, without thinking of Neil Gaiman (John Hodgman, Aug. 1). It isnt just Clarkes easy handling of a subject matter that the multihonored Gaiman seems to own. Her narrative voice echoes with his as well. Yet Clarkes book is far more than imitative fan indulgence. Frankly, I havent read anything as deliciously entertaining in a very long time. Maybe ever. For the first hundred pages I was thinking of Gaiman. For the next 675, I could only wonder, Who in the world is this woman, and how has she managed to compose such a marvelous first novel? Thanks for answering the question. Gary Locke Merrimack, N.H.. Gary Locke letter calls Susanna Clarkes book Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell deliciously entertaining (Aug 1 John Hodgman article)

Susanna Clarkes Magic Book
I wanted to write about magicians, Susanna Clarke said as we climbed a high moor in Derbyshire. I really like magicians, she went on, with a wry, apologetic dignity, as if it were an affliction she was born with. But there was no reason to suppose anyone else would. It was a cool, gray evening, and Clarkes luminous silver hair was still damp from a sudden rain that had come and passed. Her partner, the science-fiction and fantasy novelist and critic Colin Greenland, had gotten far ahead of us. They have been vacationing here for six years, hiking these steep hills and wooded cloughs in the very south of the north of England. They are both beer enthusiasts and punctuate their ramblings with long digressions in local pubs. Normally they live together in Cambridge, where Clarke worked as a cookbook editor for many years. But now she wore the comfortable clothes and comfortable air of someone who has left her day job forever. Because after 10 years, she has finally finished her novel, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, and it will be published this September..
