These are ALL SIGNED by Harapan! A Magic Apple EXCLUSIVE perk for buying from a Brick and Mortar Store!

Just like how Principia blended Harapan’s love of physics with his love of magic, Family Man provides a glimpse into Harapan’s life as he explores the powerful and meaningful crossroads between the art he loves and the family he cherishes.

In this personal and powerful book, Harapan reveals how the fear of losing his magic to the beautiful responsibilities of fatherhood became the very fuel for a new wave of creativity. Dedicated to his two daughters, Trixie and Wanda, the book’s structure mirrors his life. Each routine begins with a solid foundation (“The Main Trix”) and expands into inspired possibilities (“Wanda Out Loud”).

Inside Family Man, you will discover:

Expert Card Routines: A signature blend of elegant sleight-of-hand, clever gaffs, and mathematical whimsy. Produce Aces from a shuffled deck in stunning fashion, make faces print on double-backed cards, cause cards to vanish and travel to the card box, and perform a prediction effect with an unexpectedly clever punchline that Harapan personally uses in his formal close-up shows.
Deeply Personal Essays: The heartfelt foreword and epilogue detail the full story behind the dramatic loss that birthed Principia and the new, powerful fear currently driving Harapan’s magic forward. It’s a story that every creative will understand and relate to.

Family Man is Harapan’s most personal work yet. It is a testament to the idea that our deepest fears can be transformed into our most authentic art. It’s a book about love, loss, fatherhood, and the relentless urge to create.

If you are a magician who found a kindred spirit in the elegant thinking of Principia, you will find its heart here.

If you are a performer who believes the truest magic lives in the story around it, you will find a powerful narrative to connect with.
