:Illuminatus!:
I. "The Eye in the Pyramid"
II. "The Golden Apple"
III. "Leviathan".
Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson
Dell, 1988
ISBN 0-440-53981-1
This work of alleged fiction is an incredible berserko-surrealist
rollercoaster of world-girdling conspiracies, intelligent dolphins, the
fall of Atlantis, who really killed JFK, sex, drugs, rock'n'roll, and
the Cosmic Giggle Factor. First published in three volumes, but there
is now a one-volume trade paperback, carried by most chain bookstores
under SF. The perfect right-brain companion to Hofstadter's "G"odel,
Escher, Bach". See {Eris}, {Discordianism}, {random numbers}, {Church
of the SubGenius}.
