Author John Fowles dies, aged 79 [UK]:
John Fowles, the author of The French Lieutenant’s Woman and cult novel The Magus, has died aged 79.

Mr Fowles, considered a master of multi-layered storytelling and ambiguous fate, died on Saturday, said a spokeswoman for his publishers, Jonathan Cape.

He had been unwell for several years following a stroke in 1988.

Mr Fowles was born in Leigh-on-Sea, in Essex, the son of a tobacconist and a school teacher. He loathed his suburban background and once said that he had spent the rest of life trying to escape.
