Synopsis
Kirkus Reviews says: GET IT.
The Trump era, retold as scripture.
The Book of Don is a biting, deadpan satire of Donald Trump, television, power, politics, and the American talent for turning spectacle into belief.
Written as a mock sacred chronicle, it follows Trump from Queens to Manhattan, from The Apprentice to the White House, from golden escalator to pandemic, insurrection, exile, trials, return, and the unfinished gospel still being written around us.
At first, it is funny because it sounds absurd.
Then it is unsettling because it sounds familiar.
Towers become temples. Campaigns become crusades. Television becomes prophecy. The sacred hill is breached. The plague does not observe Easter. The story refuses to end.
Whether you love Trump, hate Trump, fear him, cheer him, mock him, defend him, or still cannot believe any of this happened, this is the version of the story you haven’t read before.
Read it for the satire.
Keep it for the mirror it holds up to America.
Gift it to anyone still trying to understand what happened to the country.

About the Author
T. B. Calder studied history and law at American universities, which was either excellent preparation for this book or a complete waste of time. They write satire and fiction exploring power, authority, and the myths we build around them. This is their first book.

The Book of Don (Hardcover)
Print on DemandSeller: CitiRetail, Stevenage, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. He came down from the tower, and America called it politics. In The Book of Don, the Trump era is recast as sacred history: the rise of a man who turned fame into power-and power into myth. Told in a voice that echoes scripture while refusing to worship the subject, this work of literary satire transforms recent history into something older, stranger, and more revealing. Towers become temples. Campaigns become crusades. Television becomes prophecy. And the line between performance and power disappears entirely. This is not a conventional political book. It is not journalism. It is not neutral. It is a chronicle of how spectacle became authority-and how a nation learned to speak its language. Inside this volume: The making of a public figure as origin myth.The art of the deal recast as doctrine.The media age rendered as gospel.The descent into politics told as prophecy fulfilled.A narrative voice that is equal parts reverent, ironic, and unflinching Some will read this as satire. Some will read it as commentary. Some will recognize it as something closer to mythmaking in real time. All of them will recognize the story. If you're looking for a standard political book, this isn't it. If you're looking for something sharper-something you'll underline, quote, and come back to-you've found it. A mock-Biblical satire of American politics, celebrity culture, and the national appetite for spectacle. This item is printed on demand.
