L’objet

The book is bound in leather and filled with illuminations that seem alive. Lucy must find the spell that makes things visible invisible. Along the way, she is tempted by other spells : one to make herself irresistibly beautiful, one to hear what her friends say about her, and a beautiful story she barely finishes reading.

Dans les livres

Histoire et rôle dans les Chroniques (révèle l’intrigue)

She casts the spell to listen and hears a friend criticizing her, which hurts her deeply. Aslan explains that one should not spy on others.

The old site referenced the magician’s tools and an image from the book, the character of Bottom, with a donkey’s head, from A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

The book of the magician is the great grimoire of Coriakin. Its pages follow in a fixed order : one cannot go back. It contains spells of beauty, knowledge, refreshment of the soul, and visibility.

Lucy’s Trial
