About This Item
Tight, square, uncreased spine has some light sunning. Clean, unmarked interior. Gently bumped corners and a remainder mark to the bottom edge, but very little wear overall. Marketed as a Thomas Pynchon–meets–Graham Greene debut, this often overlooked novel satirizes the rise of the religious right and is a historical—and uniquely hyperreal—lens into the movement's influence on US politics of the 1980s (A contemporary LA Times review quipped that it's 'safe to say that this latently angry novel will not be required reading at Falwell's Liberty University'). A rare fiction offering from Simon & Schuster's normally self-help–focused Fireside Books imprint, the design features some heavenly drop caps and chapter headings featuring calligraphic type, as well as an MTV-worthy cover design by Janet Perr, who won a Grammy for her art direction and design of Cyndi Lauper's She's So Unusual. 286 pp.
