But Lester Macaffrey, a schoolteacher found performing miracles among the human flotsam of the Lower East Side, proves no more controllable than any Messiah. While Thatcher's minions scheme to sell the world salvation with a Dryco label on it, Thatcher's own mistress is strangely drawn to Macaffrey -- and begins to be transformed into something new and strange ... something that might change the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grove Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802135636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.23h x 5.45w x 0.65d","brand":"Jack Womack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36643425353884,"sku":"9780802135636","price":13.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_c95deddc-f193-4406-8acd-1eef8c4faaaf.jpg?v=1603856599","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/heathern-9780802135636","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
