An Infinity of Mirrors.

Richard Condon

In the author’s own words, “The story of Hitler’s nihilism—destruction for the sake of destruction—and the incongruity of Nazis occupying Paris—the Beast in the city of Beauty, as it were—have attracted me since the end of World War II…. What I wanted to say was that when evil confronts us in any form, it is not enough to flee it or to pretend that it is happening to somebody else. But though evil must be opposed, when it is fought with evil’s ways it must ultimately corrupt and strangle the opposer.”

Richard Condon also wrote The Manchurian Candidate if that matters to you.
