1975 Locus Award for Best Science Fiction Novel (nominee)
The year is 2016, and President Kennedy is being murdered - again and again and again.
The director has come to the charred ruins of New York to re-enact a mad dream from the past - the assassination of President Kennedy. As actors, he has the primitive race who inhabit the city. With them and his glamorous, dark haired lover, he rehearses everything - the motorcade, the shots, the panic.
But at the last moment it all goes wrong. When the flower-filled limousine rounds the bend, the passenger is not Kennedy - but the Director himself.
Shots ring out in a wild explosion of roses.
Genre: Science Fiction
