ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“The Rules of Magic” by Alice Hoffman is a captivating story set in the late 1950s, following the Owens siblings—Franny, Jet, and Vincent—as they navigate their family’s legacy of magic and the haunting curse that affects their lives. Growing up in a family with a dark history of love and loss, they are forced to confront the complexities of their magical powers, relationships, and the rules imposed by their mother. Themes of identity, love, family, and self-acceptance intertwine as they explore the tension between magic, fate, and free will, all while discovering their place in the world.
