Review
A savagely funny satirical farce. . . . produces moments that make you laugh out loud at their inspired absurdity.
The New York Times
Buckley s caricatures of Washington politics, corporate power plays, media spin control, Hollywood pretensions and the human foibles of self-delusion and denial are appallingly right on the money.
San Francisco Chronicle
Seriously funny . . . Forget apple pie. [Buckley s] novel is as American as pork barrels and public relations.
The Atlanta Journal & Constitution
The superior goofball plot, raffish cast and zany sex scenes make this the funniest of Buckley s books.
Time
Hilarious.

About the Author
Christopher Buckley is a novelist and editor of Forbes FYI magazine. He lives in Washington, D.C., with his wife and two children and dog, Duck. In 1998, he was inducted into the Légion d'honneur by the president of the Republic of France for "extraordinary contributions to French culture," despite the fact that his French is barely sufficient to order a meal in a restaurant. He has been an adviser to every president since William Howard Taft, a remarkable achievement, since he was born in 1952.
