Taking as his starting point the various stages of a conjuring trick hes performing in a crowded restaurant, Derrens endlessly engaging narrative wanders through subjects from all points of the compass, from the history of magic and the fundamentals of psychology to the joys of internet shopping and the proper use of Parmesan cheese.
