A nice copy of this early Vidal title.<br><br><font color=#003366><b> "Brain washing has become a recognized weapon; will soul washing come next Will all the isms besetting humanity drive it into the arms of the new Messiah Can television advertising copy and high pressure publicity by exploiting man's inward religious urge lead him to anything even death in preference to life Can this happen here Can it happen now These are some of the basic elements which make 'Messiah' by Gore Vidal an absorbing frightening and stimulating experience. This extraordinarily imaginative novel has a story of motion and action told in simple economic words; it satirizes men and techniques ridiculous in themselves yet sinister in their intent and singleness of purpose; it gives a horribly real and vivid picture of a world that may come."<br><br></font></b> Purchase with confidence: all books gradings and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile.
