  “I’m writing a book on magic,” I explain, and I’m asked, “Real magic?” By real magic people mean miracles, thaumaturgical acts, and supernatural powers. “No,” I answer: “Conjuring tricks, not real magic.” Real magic, in other words, refers to the magic that is not real, while the magic that is real, that can actually be done, is not real magic. ©Lee Siegel, "Net of Magic"
  

  Приключения Гарри Поттера кажутся реальней приключений Алекса Райдера, маленького джеймсбонда. Но за легкость и экшн хотел было поставить 4, пока автор не обнажил свои смысложизненные горизонты:

  
  Murmansk was made up of row after row of almost identical apartment blocks like so many match boxes. There didn't seem to be any cinemas, restaurants, shops — anything that would make life worth living.

  
  Трояк.
