Item #29471 THE ETERNAL FOOTMAN. James Morrow.

THE ETERNAL FOOTMAN.

New York, San Diego, London: Harcourt Brace & Company, [1999]. Octavo, boards. First edition. "The third installment in Morrow's Godhead Trilogy (after Blameless in Abaddon and Towing Jehovah) returns the reader to a world that is perpetual witness to God's death as His Delaware-sized skull--the Cranium Dei--takes up residence in the sky. Society is beset with an apocalyptic plague; its victims ""riddled with Nihilism... and malignant despair"" as they progress through the four fatal stages of the disease. Each sufferer meets a personal ""leveler""--a literate, ironic demon who heralds death and dwells in its host, materializing to impart jokes, warnings, inevitabilities." - Publisher's Weekly review, 1November, 1999. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#168647) (29471). Item #29471

Price: $25.00
