The Day of the Jackal is a griping political thriller based on the far-right paramilitary group OAS's (Organisation armée secrete) assassination attempt against French president Charles de Gaulle in response to his granting Algerian independence. Journalist Frederick Forsyth's 1962 reporting from the scene inspired the novel, which follows the codenamed assassin "Jackal" as he attempts to take de Gaulle's life. Contemporary reviews praised its grittiness as making "The Manchurian Candidate and The Spy Who Came in From the Cold seem like Hardy Boy mysteries" (New York Times). Forsyth wrote with fervor, completing the book within 35 days (BBC). It would be adapted into a 1973 film by Fred Zinneman with Edward Fox in the lead. Yaakov; Greenfieldt, 231. Fine.
