I don’t love the idea that The Exorcist (1971) by William Peter Blatty is the first book I’m highlighting at this rejuvenated Quivering Pen blog on Substack, but yet here we are on this post-election Friday when half the country seems to have lost their minds, possessed by external forces that have taken up residence inside their bodies.
Oh my God, this was the first book I read on Audiobook, with William P. Blatty's voice, and I was so terrified, I had to stop reading. I still think it is the most brilliant and terrifying book and film and I will never read or look at it again--but youa re so right--it is the book that these times call for.
