Review of Copperfield book in WSJ today

Postby erdnasephile » October 31st, 2021, 12:49 pm

For those of you who take the WSJ: Copperfield's new book got a lengthy, pretty positive review from a reviewer not known for pulling her punches. (Apologies: I tried to post a link, but there is a paywall on the site and I couldn't find the review on a news aggregator).

I've read that those that bought from Talkshop, that those books are taking a while, TS blames the supplier who ships. My account shows it was expected to ship last Wednesday, but there's no packages coming my way according to Informed Delivery.

I got mine, last week from Amazon, no Orson Wells chapter.
The book is very nice, cover, DJ, paper used and photos.
The script on some of the chapters contains the same information that you have read from other sources, few of them has different information, at least for me.

I think the target audience is magicians and general public. I can see non magician buying this book .

FWIW Talkshop's website says they're shipping on November 12.

I ordered mine from B & N for the Welles chapter.
