Synopsis
"What an excellent day for an exorcism..." Originally published in 1971,The Exorcist, one of the most controversial novels ever written, went on to become a literary phenomenon: It spent more than a year on the New York Times bestseller list, seventeen consecutively at number one. Inspired by a true story of a child's demonic possession in the 1940s, William Peter Blatty created an iconic novel that focuses on Regan, the eleven-year-old daughter of a movie actress residing in Washington, D.C. A small group of overwhelmed yet determined individuals must rescue Regan from her unspeakable fate, and the drama that ensues is gripping and unfailingly terrifying. Two years after its publication, The Exorcist was turned into a hugely popular motion picture, garnering ten Academy Award nominations. On opening day of the film, lines of the novel's fans stretched around city blocks. In Chicago, frustrated moviegoers used a battering ram to gain entry through the double side doors of a theater, while in Kansas City, police used tear gas to disperse an impatient crowd who tried to force their way into a cinema. The three major television networks carried footage of these events, with CBS's Walter Cronkite devoting almost ten minutes to the story. The Exorcist was, and is, more than just a novel and a film: It is a literary landmark. Revised and expanded by the author before his death, including new dialogue, a new character, and a chilling new extended scene, this unique edition of William Peter Blatty's searing novel of faith provides an unforgettable reading experience that will continue to shock, edify, and terrify a new generation of readers., "An experience you will never forget." -St. Louis Post-Dispatch "The Exorcist is as superior to most books of its kind as an Einstein equation is to an accountant's column of figures." -New York Times Book Review Four decades after it first terrified the world, William Peter Blatty's The Exorcist is back! An extraordinary classic work of horror and dark paranormal suspense-widely considered one of the most frightening novels ever written-Blatty's masterpiece of unrelenting chills was the basis for the acclaimed Academy Award-nominated motion picture directed by William Friedkin and starring Ellen Burstyn and Max Von Sydow. Rediscover the power of The Exorcist in this stunning 40th Anniversary Edition, as a desperate mother and two priests fight to free the soul of a little girl from a supernatural entity of pure malevolence., "What an excellent day for an exorcism..."

- e***u (283)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.

Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive.
