Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Bantam edition, November 1978. Clean & tight mass market paperback, unread in Near Fine condition. "IT'S COMING--THE END OF THE WORLD! Hallelujah!, the last fateful day that will shatter life on the planet, when sinners must pay up and a few shall be saved--Armageddon! Bursting with vitality and teeming with colorful characters, this is Robert Coover's famous novel of a strange grass-roots American cult. A catastrophic explosion in a small mining town in western Pennsylvania leaves ninety-seven dead--and one survivor. Giovanni Bruno's miraculous escape captures the imagination of the good people of West Condon. Rapidly, the Brunist cult takes form with a luminous white bird as its symbol and white tunics as its garb. Then speeded and spread by the magic of TV, it sprouts all over America. Then comes the Day of Redemption." [publisher copy] "Fiction as it should be, real, hot with life and conflict, multi-dimensional, with the bizarre and the commonplace. A remarkable effort of the imagination."--Book Week. Michiko Kakutani of The New York Times has said "Of all the postmodern writers, Robert Coover is probably the funniest and most malicious, mixing up broad social and political satire with vaudeville turns, lewd pratfalls, and clever word plays that make us rethink both the mechanics of the world and our relationship to it."
