Apocalypse Pretty Soon Travels in End-Time America

"Heard's gentle, contrarian approach might seem laudable, except that he's constantly betrayed by his own material. He keeps glimpsing dark and menacing aspects of millennialism, but committed from the start to the sunny side of apocalyptic belief, he almost always retreats to wisecracks. The result is a book that delivers little more than an extended riff on the bizarre rites of America's futurist fringe."Heard, Alex is the author of 'Apocalypse Pretty Soon Travels in End-Time America', published 2000 under ISBN 9780385498524 and ISBN 0385498527.
