Behold Metatron, The Recording Angel

Sol Yurick

Salliters, ??. 2024. Paperback. New copies. 

From the publisher:

"The old philosopher's stone could convert base metals into gold. Now humans, real estate, social relations are converted into electronic signs carried in an electronic plasma. The dream of magical control has never been exorcised. Perhaps, after all, modern capitalism is a great factory for the production of angels. —Metatron."

Courtesy of the enigmatic Salitters guerilla type-setting crew, I am tremendously excited to offer this newly laid out and updated version of Sol Yurick's prophetic work of cybertheurgy, "Behold Metatron, The Recording Angel." While you may know him from his book turned movie "The Warriors", Yurick was a razor sharp social critic with his eyes fixed keenly forward to the future. This book, published in 1985, was entirely predictive of cryptocurrency and it's many ramifications. Let that sink in. This is the Baghdad Battery of neo-cyber-thought. Highest possible recommendation. Buy enough copies and maybe we can unearth his magnum opus "Burning the Bank of America."
