 * Also by Ira Levin This Perfect Day  The author of Rosemary's Baby, which made the supernatural terrors of the past a gripping reality for millions of readers, hos now written a novel about the nightmarish future&mdash;equally compel- ing, and even more terrifyingly real. THIS PER- FECT DAY is a masterful strory of suspense and love and adventure shaped and underlaid by  thought-provoking social inquiry; it is a bestseller that “outshines Orwell's 1984,” said Book Week.  “Absorbing from the start to finish . . . Full of sur- prises, reversals, and exciting scenes of violance.”        &mdash;Book of the Month Club News A FAWCETT CREST BOOK  Q 1973     $1.50  (Fawcett logo) Wherever Paperbacks are sold  (blurb in small print about ordering by mail)
