What if the Second Coming didn’t quite come off as advertised? What if “the Corpse” on display in that funky roadside zoo is really who they say it is—what does that portend for the future of western civilization? And what if a young clairvoyant named Amanda reestablishes the flea circus as popular entertainment and fertility worship as the principal religious form of our high-tech age? Another Roadside Attraction answers those questions and a lot more.
This is the small pocket-sized edition trade paperback: 7″ x 4.25″ x 1″ with the $1.95 cover price. Ships promptly in a secure mailer with the book wrapped in both craft paper and bubble wrap.
