(If this review needs to be moved elsewhere, whoever is responsible, please go ahead.) It’s a long review. You may want to go and grab a cup of coffee. Hope it’s of some use. (The review – not the coffee. Of course, I hope you enjoy it. And the review. OK, I’ll stop – this is getting silly!
) Title: Thirteen Steps to Mentalism by Tony Corinda Type: Book (mentalism) 420pp Price/availability: Depends where you are in the world! Generally First published in 1968, this work, not surprisingly, has an old-fashioned feel to it. And I speak as someone who was rattling along to the Rolling Stones back then. (Well, them and Leapy Lee.) The book has a useful index, but could, I feel, benefit from a complete contents list. Each section of the book does, of course, have its own series of subject headings, but unless you know which page ‘Two Person Telepathy’ begins on, for example, you need to go to the Index, or else thumb through until you hit lucky. Corinda’s work is divided (not surprisingly) into thirteen sections, or ‘Steps’, namely: 1 The ‘Swami Gimmick’ 2 Pencil, Lip, Sound, Touch and Muscle Reading 3 Mnemonics and Mental Systems 4 Predictions 5 Blindfolds and X-rays 6 Billets 7 Book Tests and Fogel Interview 8 Two Person Telepathy 9 Mediumistic Stunts 10 Card Tricks 11 Question and Answer (Readings) 12 Publicity Stunts 13 Patter and Presentation 1 The ‘Swami Gimmick’ This section is split into three self-explanatory subsections, namely ‘Types’, ‘Technique’ and ‘Tricks’. Obviously, there have been some advances/changes in the use of this gimmick since Corinda’s day, but the principles remain the same.
The author offers guidance on the varieties of Swami available, how to handle the gimmick, what type of card to write on etc. He also suggests some 24 effects that make use of the gimmick. All in all, a very ‘handy’ introduction. 2 Pencil, Lip, Sound, Touch and Muscle Reading As you might have guessed, this section is divided into five separate areas.
Corinda analyses each technique, then offers a broad range of advice: when to attempt the method, how to position yourself, favourable and unfavourable conditions - concluding the chapter with a good selection of effects that can be performed once these abilities have been acquired. They are not, of course, easy skills to master. Corinda himself acknowledges that - to take pencil reading as an example - the average mentalist steers clear of such things because ‘it is hard work’ and the results are ‘known to be uncertain’. But he’s nothing if not keen, and believes that if you apply yourself diligently, you can make great strides in this area. (And let’s face it, Derren Brown must have started somewhere!) 3 Mnemonics and Mental Systems One of my favourite sections.
As I’ve remarked in other posts, I have found that a mastery of mnemonics and memory systems can open up a rich seam of effects. As Corinda himself observes, ‘To the Mentalist, Memory Systems are indispensable’. Here, he touches on the history of memory systems, from those employed by the ancient Greeks, through to the practitioners and methods of the twentieth century - Al Baker, the Nikola system etc. He provides a basic introduction to memory systems which, while excellent, provides the aspiring mentalist with a secure grounding rather than an end product.
