Body Politic," is arriving in bookstores in a new paperback edition,
advertised as "a revealing look at what it might be like to be the Vice
President of the United States."

> Mrs. Cheney's fictional vice president, a 59-year-old Republican, dies in
office of a heart attack. Her real-life husband is also 59 and has, of
course, just survived his fourth heart attack. As one of her characters, a
paranoid Secret Service agent, observes, "Life imitates art."
