Review:
"The uncontested master of comic irony" (Time)
"Very funny - I laughed out loud sixteen times and giggle internally a statistically unverifiable amount. In short, a masterpiece... I cant think of anything like it" (New York Times)
"A bitter yet hilarious lampoon...a remarkable display of satiric vehemence. An extremely (in every sense) funny, nail-bitingly anxious work" (Financial Times)
"When Philip Roth sends Richard Nixon to hell in Our Gang, there is delight in recognising that if there is a hell, Nixon will probably act there just as Roth describes him" (Washington Post)
"Perhaps the funniest and most complex exercise in sustained political satire since Animal Farm" (Newsweek)
