The narrator of the story is surprisingly the Washington bureau chief for a large Northeasternnews paper. The surprise is that Wicker himself was bureau chief there for the New York Times. during the Johnson and early Nixon ad ministration. In many respects, the rather long novel (432 pages) is autobio graphical since both the narrator and Wicker are North Carolina boys and one gete confused as to who is saying what during some of the lengthy descriptions about Southern politics and mentality. The story centers around a mythical senator, Hunt Anderson, and his wife Kathy. Anderson is a junior senator who can't seem to wait his turn to get a shot at the White House. He begins by hold ing hearings on the misuse of mi grant workers. As a result of the hearings the major candidate is discredited. An derson, through his television ex posure during the hearings, be comes the prime contender for the ennsylvania Avenue residence. Bucking the Senate seniority, ie makes many enemies on his vay up and the party rebels at the iominating convention. Wicker shows with astute per eption how "the taste in the rnouth" of the highest office can .urn the head of the noblest of white knights. Anderson's head was turned from getting construc ive legislation on the books to al er the plight of the migrant work er But Anderson is portrayed as .he "gut fighter" who, once cor. winced he is destined to do some 'hing, puts his head down and ;craps with the best of them. He goes into the convention with the knife in his teeth. Wicker whips the reader with suspense. LOOI All you e Strahge Mix Anderson's wife flays influential delegates with a sexual presence that is near the metaphysical. The whole thing is almost com ical, except we never get an Indica tion of Wicker'sline between fact and fiction. Anderson is reminiscent of LBJ,, and his wife, of Ja6kie Kennedy. What a combination-cornpone and caviar. At any rate, Anderson is the fatalist who loves the battle. He wants to be in the are'n with the Christians he said, with has face dripping blood, sweat, and tears For anyone who loves the battle, the suspense is great. No one cries when the man buckles-facing the lions. PATRICK TYLER PRi Watch C Classifie K STUDE What SHE] COLUM across fros 4 Nightly Specia an eat from a .$1 TOM WICKE R amecock d Ads NTS...
