In this episode of Salt Lake Dirt, Kyler welcomes author Christopher Zeischegg to discuss his novel The Magician, which has just been reissued in 2024. Christopher shares the intricate journey behind the book, revealing how it evolved from a multimedia project inspired by his past in the adult industry and the tumultuous relationships that shaped him.
Delving into themes of addiction, spirituality, and the complexities of human connection, Christopher reflects on the duality of his protagonist's life—caught between the allure of a dark romance and the search for redemption. The conversation explores the creative process of writing such a raw and personal narrative, and how it reflects his own struggles with identity and belief.
