Slater, Philip Elliot How I Saved the World
Dutton 1985 0525243550 / 9780525243557 First Edition Hardcover Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket
Clean bright copy. ; First printing, blue board, 337 pp. Very light wear on edges, DJ VG+ with light scuff on fold and tone inside flap. Sociologist Slater ( The Pursuit of Loneliness) has written a novel. One of the 10 best books of 1985 - San Diego Union. Taylor Bishop, who's been recently released from a mental hospital, sees an old Indian woman on TV and is suddenly convinced she holds his destiny. With his friend Grace, he sets out to find her. The cast of characters grows from there: Louise, the tricky shaman; Polly Morfuss, lead singer for the heavy metal group Crushed Nuts; Professor Brandon Valdemar. There's a lot about dreams, going out of your body, nuclear secrets, a project called ``Wyatt Earp, '' psychics and industrial spies. It ends with a ``why the crazy scientist is doing what he's doing'' speech, where Slater gets a chance to air his feelings about nuclear war, the world, etc. Though the end is predictable and too long in the making, the book has very funny moments. Library Journal; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
