關於這本電子書

Before William Peter Blatty was the New York Times bestselling author of The Exorcist, he penned a series of comic articles for The Saturday Evening Post about his experiences in the Middle East.

Which Way to Mecca, Jack?: From Brooklyn to Beirut: The Adventures of an American Sheik is his hilarious, semi-autobiographical story, based on the Post articles, originally inspired by his two-year stint in Lebanon working for the United States Information Agency.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

關於作者

William Peter Blatty (1928-2017), the writer of numerous novels and screenplays, is best known for his mega-bestselling novel The Exorcist, deemed by the New York Times Book Review to be "as superior to most books of its kind as an Einstein equation is to an accountant's column of figures." An Academy Award winner for his screenplay for The Exorcist, Blatty is not only the author of one of the most terrifying novels ever written, but, paradoxically, also cowrote the screenplay for the hilarious Inspector Clouseau film, A Shot in the Dark. New York Times reviewers of his early comic novels noted, "Nobody can write funnier lines than William Peter Blatty," describing him as "a gifted virtuoso who writes like S. J. Perelman."
