Book description
The year is 2016, and President Kennedy is being murdered - again and
again and again The director has come to the charred ruins of New York
to re-enact a mad dream from the past - the assassination of President
Kennedy. As actors, he has the primitive race who inhabit the city. With
them and his glamorous, dark haired lover, he rehearses everything - the
motorcade, the shots, the panic. But at the last moment it all goes
wrong. When the flower-filled limousine rounds the bend, the passenger
is not Kennedy - but the Director himself. Shots ring out in a wild
explosion of roses Barry N. Malzberg (1939-) Barry N. Malzberg is an
