  “A magic curtain, woven of legends, hung before the world. Cervantes sent Don Quixote journeying and tore through the curtain. The world opened before the knight-errant in all the comical nakedness of its prose.” 
  In this thought-provoking, endlessly enlightening, and entertaining essay on the art of the novel, renowned author Milan Kundera suggests that “the curtain” represents a ready-made perception of the world that each of us has—a pre-interpreted world. The job of the novelist, he argues, is to rip through the curtain and reveal what it hides. Here an incomparable literary artist cleverly sketches out his personal view of the history and value of the novel in Western civilization. In doing so, he celebrates a prose form that possesses the unique ability to transcend national and language boundaries in order to reveal some previously unknown aspect of human existence.

  Houdini's Last Trick - Solving...

  The story of Harry Houdini begins far from the glamour of theater stages and the awe-inspiring feats of magic that would later define his life. Born as Erik Weisz on March 24, 1874, in Budapest, Hungary, he was the fourth of seven children in a Jewish family facing the challenges of poverty. When Erik was four, his family emigrated to the United States, settling first in Appleton, Wisconsin. His father, Mayer Samuel Weisz, served as a rabbi, but his inability to sustain steady work placed the family in a constant struggle for survival. 
  Young Erik exhibited an early fascination with performing, often entertaining his siblings and friends with acrobatics, mimicry, and sleight of hand. Despite their financial hardships, his parents encouraged his creative pursuits, instilling in him a strong sense of discipline and perseverance. These qualities would prove instrumental in shaping his future. 
  In 1887, when Erik was just 13 years old, his father passed away, leaving the family in an even more precarious position. To support his mother and siblings, Erik took on various odd jobs, including working as a shoe polisher and messenger. Despite his responsibilities, he found time to nurture his growing interest in magic and illusion, which he discovered through books and local performers.
