The Manchurian Candidate (1959)
Everybody knows the controversial 1962 film of The
Manchurian Candidate starring Frank Sinatra and Angela Lansbury, even
though it was taken out of circulation for twenty-five years after JFK’s
assassination. Equally controversial on publication, and just as timely
today, is Richard Condon’s original novel. First published in 1959, at
the height of cold war paranoia, The Manchurian Candidate is a
terrifying and suspenseful political thriller featuring Sergeant Raymond
Shaw, ex-prisoner of war, Medal of Honor winner, American hero . . . and
brainwashed assassin. Condon’s expert manipulation of the book’s
multiple themes—from anticommunist hysteria to megalomaniacal
motherhood—makes this one of the most entertaining, and enduring, books
of the era.
