Silly senatorial satire and plenty of pundit parody. Written a few days into the government shut down of 2013. Pokes fun at all 100 Senators at the time. Although the house probably should have been lambasted as well, this shines light on the absurdity that is our government and how it does NOT work sometimes...I still really do love America really I do!

Having unraveled the mysteries of Washington in his classic best seller Parliament of Whores, and the mysteries of economics in Eat the Rich, one of our shrewdest and most mordant foreign correspondents now turns his attention to what is these days the ultimate mystery - America's foreign policy.

In the 1980s, a man is pulled up out of the Indian Ocean in Port Pallid, South Africa, claiming to have been kidnapped as a baby. So begins the odyssey of Jimfish, who defies the usual classification of race that defines the rainbow nation. His journey through the last years of Apartheid will extend beyond South Africa to the wider world, where he will be an unlikely witness to the dying days of the 20th century.

2016 Election Fairy Tales was inspired by watching this crazy election unfold, as the conflict turned into a circus and prize fight. Instead of the usual debate about issues and opinions, the campaign became an arena of high drama, especially for Republicans, as Donald Trump, once considered just a reality show entertainer, captured the anti-establishment vote and became the front runner.

This book is important, and not just because it's about Donald Trump. It is essential listening for anyone who wants to discover the official Trump Brand Origin Story, to learn his positions on vital issues like the military - "Are These the Biggest Missiles We Have?," science - "If Einstein Was So Smart, Why Wasn't He Rich?" and good government - "Of the Good People, By the Good People, and For the Good People."

Scott Ott, American's leading family-friendly Conservative satirist, brings you the Preamble to the Constitution as understood by our friends on the Progressive Left. He takes the Preamble phrase-by-phrase, explaining what it means, what it used to mean, and what it really, truly could mean in a land where dreams come true. This mini-audiobook takes you inside the head of a left-wing Constitutional scholar, where there's plenty of room to move around and rearrange things. Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Mark Levin and many others have praised Scott Ott's "fake but true" news satire, which he wrote at ScrappleFace.com for eight years.

While Trump may be nuts and going extinct soon, he also may fight like one of the many animals featured in this book, as well as thousands of other animals. The reason for all the fighting, especially among the males, is for power, territory, and females. And like these animals, Trump is constantly fighting one foe or another.

Gogol's great comic masterpiece paints an hilariously satirical picture of provincial life in 19th century Russia. Its publication in 1847 not only provided inspiration for succeeding generations of Russian writers, but fanned the already flickering flames of social discontent which were eventually to flare up and consume Russia in the revolution of 1917.

Democratic vice presidential candidate Senator Joseph Lieberman made history when he became the first person of Jewish faith to be included on a major-party ticket. But he wasn't the first one to think of it. Not by a long shot. Long before he ran for office, Al Franken asked the question, Why Not Me? in his comedic audiobook of the same name....

This book is dedicated to the many opponents who would like to see Trump defeated and the end to his presidential campaign. They feel Trump's campaign has been based on insults, humiliation, and inciting his followers to violence. He has been called a bigot and racist and compared to Hitler. Some have considered him a dangerous evil monster. In the past, many dangerous and scary beasts have gone extinct, so this book has been created in this spirit of comparing Trump to many now extinct beasts.

The Watergate Rhymes aims to educate, reflect, and learn from that consumptive scandal, while using satire to see the humor in the human frailties of that maligned administration - and in ourselves, all with the perspective and understanding that only precious time enables.

In 1938, Hitler visits Italy. An expatriate Irish art historian is obliged to guide Mussolini and his guest around the galleries. Half fascinated, half repelled, he watches the tyrants, wrestling with the uneasy conviction that he ought to use the opportunity to "do something" about them yet lacking the zeal that might transform misgivings into action. Thirty years later, his daughter comes across a compromising clipping showing her father with the dictators.

Paul Krassner's style of personal journalism constantly blurs the line between observer and participant. Nowhere is this more apparent than this collection of essays and interviews culled from his columns at AVN Online. Krassner shines his keen satirical mind on the so-called taboos of today's society and breaks them down to show the hypocrisy of the world's "culture warriors". With a biting wit and tongue firmly planted in cheek, Mr. Krassner reveals the absurdity of our oppressive social mores....

Who Died...and Left You in Charge? includes letters from my generation to the next generation about how we screwed up the accomplishments of greatest generation.

The year is 2002. Weekly news magazines dominate the political agenda in New York and Washington. A young journalist named Michael M. Hastings is an intern at The Magazine, wet behind the ears, the only one in the office who has actually read his coworkers' books. He will stop at nothing to turn his internship into a full-time position and has figured out just who to impress: Nishant Patel, the international editor, and Sanders Berman, managing editor - both vying for the job of editor-in-chief.

El panorama de la minería en España y los graves desequilibrios sociales en nuestra sociedad actual son los temas que aborda Alberto Vázquez-Figueroa con su excelente prosa en Bimini. En este caso, el autor viste de thriller una trama que acompaña a sus dos protagonistas en su intento de revolucionar el mundo de la navegación con un nuevo sistema de construcción de barcos basado en el carbón; un intento que los llevará a enfrentarse a las mayores potencias petrolíferas y a apoderarse de mil doscientos millones de dólares sin dejar el menor rastro.

"La fattoria degli animali" voleva essere, nelle intenzioni dell'autore, una realistica allegoria della Russia Sovietica, dominata da Stalin. La cacciata dell'uomo avrebbe dovuto portare tra gli animali della fattoria liberata alla realizzazione di quei valori di egualitarismo, fratellanza e libertà che sono il manifesto ideologico dell'illuminismo e da cui hanno tratto la loro origine marxismo, socialismo, comunismo. Nel libro viene ben rappresentato come nella realtà la salita al potere da parte dei nuovi suonatori non determinerà affatto il cambiamento della musica, tutt'altro.

Tutto comincia al largo di Bali, con una mongolfiera e quattro bottiglie di champagne. Allan Karlsson si appresta a festeggiare il suo centunesimo compleanno con il fidato complice Julius, quando è costretto a un ammaraggio d'emergenza nel mezzo dell'oceano. Salvati da una nave nordcoreana che trasporta clandestinamente uranio per conto di Kim Jong-un, i due vengono fermati con l'accusa di spionaggio. Dopo lo sbarco, Allan si finge uno specialista di tecnologia nucleare per riuscire a fuggire con una valigetta dal contenuto esplosivo.

L'"Utopia" di Thomas More rappresenta a pieno titolo il prototipo moderno della letteratura utopistica e visionaria. Suddiviso in due parti, l'audiolibro è incentrato sul dialogo di More con Raffaele Itlodeo ("il chiacchierone"). Questi, gran viaggiatore, esordisce con la descrizione a tinte vive dell'Inghilterra dell'epoca. Il fenomeno delle recinzioni, dell'espropriazione delle terre comuni a opera della nobiltà terriera, aveva condotto sul lastrico vaste componenti della società inglese, soprattutto i contadini.
