The book

The Nigger Factory is a scornful statement on the way in which human beings are conditioned to think.

On the campus of Sutton University, Virginia, the students are trying to carry forth the message of reconstruction to a university resistant to change. The failure of the Sutton to embrace the changing attitudes of the Sixties has necessitated extreme action and the revolution is nigh.

The Reviews

The books are drenched with the dark overtones of America's underworld, battered by the storms of politics and race. They are as sexy as they are psychotic.
City Life [on THE VULTURE & THE NIGGER FACTORY]

There's plenty of tension and sex, but also a whole heap of politics. These are ace period pieces.
