Read in April, 2007
I only read one story out of this collection. I watched the movie The Illusionist which is based on the short story by Steven Millhauser, Eisenheim the Illusionist. I thought the original story was pretty good. The movie added an aspect that was merely mentioned in the original story, and it made the movie. See the movie.
