Across the Table: Tarot, Charlatans, and the Gift of Reading People

She never saw a single card she turned. In the story that opens this book, Madame Odile has read cards above a pharmacy in Lyon for thirty years, and for twenty of them she has been blind. What she reads is the person in the other chair. This book is about how that is done, and about everyone who has ever sat at a table like hers.
