Book description
The Last Transaction is a deep and fascinating glimpse into the
memories, inner compulsions, torments, triumphs, and events in the life
of a President of the United States in a world gone mad, from 1980 to
1985. Even more, it is a perceptive vision of the major issues our
society will face tomorrow. Sure to be a controversial, possibly
prophetic, like anything Barry Malzberg writes, this novel is an
experience you will not forget. Barry N. Malzberg (1939-) Barry N.
Malzberg is an American writer, editor and agent, whose prolific career
has spanned numerous genres - most notably crime and science fiction.
Malzberg was particularly active in the science fiction scene of the
early seventies, although he became disillusioned with the market forces
defining the field, and has rarely published SF works since. His most
recent activity in the field has been in the form of advice columns for
writers in the quarterly magazine of the Science Fiction and Fantasy
Writers of America. Barry N. Malzberg has been shortlisted for numerous
awards, including the Hugo, Nebula and Philip K. Dick.
