The Wanderer and The Magus
I'm sorry to be one of those who saw the movie first, but I did see both The Magus and The Wanderer at the Nugget - at our college town theater in 1969. Neither have appeared on DVD, which is a shame and a mystery. When and if you get a chance to see the film versions, they will not disappoint!

The Lost Classic
John Fowles once wrote that this novel (Also known as Le Grand Meaulnes and The Wanderer) "belongs to, and is the finest example of, a category of fiction that has no name, but exists." You could, as some do, describe this as a novel about youth and growing up, yet I think this might be a bit misleading.
