".Gore Vidal again demonstrates in these seven stories that maturity of craftsmanship and individuality which has gained him an important place among writers. He has wit; he has variety; he has a style. Of the hundreds of new writers to come out of the Second World War only a handful have continued to develop to grow. He has survived notoriety and early success to achieve a career of letters that is unique a body of work that is substantial a perception of reality which is precise and illuminating. After reading 'A Moment of Green Laurel' published here for the first time one appreciates the comment of The Times Literary Supplement: 'It is quite possible for a successful young novelist like Mr. Gore Vidal to live in America and prevent anything he does not want from impinging on his consciousness and as he matures a correlation between his standards and those he does not follow. From the fusion a peculiarly American literature developes.'." Purchase with confidence: all books gradings and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile.

A nice copy of this early Vidal title. "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."
