Bargain book by the Pulitzer prize winner Philip Roth:

Philip Roth's Plot Against America is just $0.63 at the US Kindle store (B&N has it listed at $8.77)

Quote:
Product Description

In an astonishing feat of empathy and narrative invention, our most ambitious novelist imagines an alternate version of American history.

In 1940 Charles A. Lindbergh, heroic aviator and rabid isolationist, is elected President. Shortly thereafter, he negotiates a cordial “understanding” with Adolf Hitler, while the new government embarks on a program of folksy anti-Semitism.

For one boy growing up in Newark, Lindbergh’s election is the first in a series of ruptures that threaten to destroy his small, safe corner of America–and with it, his mother, his father, and his older brother.
* Another Philip Roth book The Humbling is just $1.33
