18. i thought of Johnny got his gun too
what a book! i remember how horrified my friends and i were when we read it (probably around 1970)

i just did a search on imdb.com and there was a film of this book made in 1971; donald sutherland played christ, timothy bottoms played joe and according to the posters on the site, metallica owns the rights to the movie and used clips of it in one of their videos.

i wonder if there is any way to find a copy of this...maybe amazon (tho i hear amazon donates mostly republican)
