An abandoned farmhouse, a cache of stolen arms, four revolutionaries awaiting their leader, and a comrade just escaped from custody... The Popular Liberation Army is ready to stage the operation that will trigger the long-awaited revolution in New Brunswick ......."ln the mad few days covered by this story the conspirators' power struggle rages in an atmosphere of surreal humor. But this is more than a funny book. Today's news about guerrilla forces like this make the story disturbingly plausible." READING FOR PLEASURE (U.S.) ......."Exuberant, comic, with a satiric edge frequently bordering on absurdist fantasy." Linda Sandler, SATURDAY NIGHT ......."An almost surrealistic account, it represents the best in contemporary satire. Outrageously funny." Aaron Michelson, BEST SELLERS, New York ......."Absolutely hilariously funny. Farce is not easy to sustain, but Raymond Fraser can mix the absurdities of humanity into fine, plausible fiction." Michael O. Nowlan, THE GLEANER ......."Spellbinding." Norma West Linder, Poet ......."Fraser is a marvelous story teller. Like a literary Muhammad Ali he floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee, always moving, always keeping the reader off balance." Dave Butler, THE TIMES & TRANSCRIPT .......NEW REVISED EDITION WITH AN AFTERWORD BY THE AUTHOR
