Upon mastering agency tactics, however, he drops out to train young Chicago blacks as \"Freedom Fighters\" in this explosive, award-winning novel. As a story of one man's reaction to ruling-class hypocrisy, the book is autobiographical and personal. As a tale of a man's reaction to oppression, it is universal.","brand":"Sam Greenlee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48694936895779,"sku":"9780814349571","price":16.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0885\/5437\/3411\/files\/9780814349571_p0_v5_s600x595.jpg?v=1718596681","url":"https:\/\/glenthebookhouse.com\/products\/the-spook-who-sat-by-the-door-second-edition-sam-greenlee","provider":"BOOKDP4","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
