Some Angry Angel, published in 1960, was Richard Condon's third novel and gave impetus to the growing, though relatively short-lived "Condon cult" of that era. Written with all of the panache, stylistic tricks, and mannerisms that characterize all his works, it was not, however, one of his more typical political thrillers such as its immediate predecessor, the far better-known The Manchurian Candidate. Although Condon is still remembered today as the author of a number of xxxx books such as Candidate, Winter Kills, and the Prizzi series, Some Angry Angel has long since been forgotten.
