"I only know I'm haunted, possessed by everything over there." (The Magus pg. 270)
On this page when Allison was visiting and pages and pages after that. It seems that Bourani has indeed become his reality over actual reality. Especially in this part of the book when he is not at Bourani he's thinking about it all the time and what kind of test Conchis has for him in store next. He wants to know and understand so badly what exactly he is in the middle of. It seems like the uncertainty annoys him, especially not knowing whether "Julie" is who she says she really is. I could relate with the character through out the whole book, it was confusing trying to figure out the maze that he was in. When I was reading it, I had thought of a movie that was kind of similar. The movie is called "Stranger Than Fiction" it's about this ordinary guy named Harold Crick who is an IRS agent and he starts to hear this voice that is narrating his life. Little does he know that he is the main character in a new book that Karen Eiffel is writing who is known for killing all of her main characters. You could imagine it was a strange process trying to find out what is happening to him as well.
