"There are only two races on this planet - the intelligent and the stupid." - John Fowles, post-modernist author. #BOTD 1926. My favorite novel from John "The Magus", a story of the consciousness of the Western world in the 20th century. A spectacle of fantasy, lust & moral awareness. #JohnFowles

#JohnFowles on #TerenceStamp in #TheCollector: "Most girls would give their all to get in a cellar with him."

So by degrees this Mage begins to flye 33

Mrs Erdleigh (quoting the alchemist, Thomas Vaughan) had spoken of how the 'liberated soul ascends, looking at the sunset towards the west wind, and hearing secret harmonies.' 36

John Fowles

It is not necessarily too little knowledge that causes ignorance; possessing too much, or wanting to gain too much, can produce the same result.

- #JohnFowles

We all write poems; it is simply that the poets are the ones who write in words.

- #JohnFowles

Possibly inspired by Claire de Duras’s “Ourika” which #JohnFowles himself later translated into English. 7.5/10 #TheFrenchLieutenant'sWoman

Undoubtedly an excellent novel, and an education on the Victorian world, but I found the main characters a pain in the arse tbh; a relief to finish. #JohnFowles #TheFrenchLieutenantsWoman #literature #Dorset #Devon #LymeRegis #Exeter #JurassicCoast

As well as his novels, I love to dip into Wormholes, a terrific volume of essays by the great #JohnFowles
Erudite, waspish and always entertaining and enlightening - it's nice to be reminded of the sheer enjoyment of his superb writing.

Terence Stamp Stars in 'The Collector ' (Published 1965) A strange kidnapping, not entirely clarified, from Fowles novel. Brooding, often gripping, some brilliant touches via Wyler.

A transcription of the New York Times' original 1965 review of The Collector.
