Has, in The Magus, a more sexually liberated cast of women characters ever been so bluntly depicted in literary fiction in the last fifty years? Fear of Flying doesn't even get off the ground by comparison! Think Mary Wollstone- craft, Simone de Beauvoir, Gloria Steinem, Susan Sontag. These are magnificently amoral Super- Women, IronWilled- Women. Never mind that nearly every female character in the book Fowles endowed with protean feminist charac- teristics. The Magus has been wrongly criticized as being misogynistic (what hogwash!), a novel only a certain type of machismo'd-to-the-max male reader could truly enjoy and appreciate, blah blah blah.
