Political Satire

The grand ship Glory has been skilfully captained for years, but when its well-loved old skipper decides to step down, a new leader thrusts himself forward and a new era begins. The new Captain is vulgar, bumbling and inexplicably confident. With no knowledge of nautical navigation or maritime law - nor even, as he has repeatedly remarked, a particular liking for boats - he solemnly swears to shake things up.

Quinto e ultimo Tomo dell'opera, dedicato alla morte e all'annullamento. Morte dei giovani rivoluzionari sulle barricate...

A smart, funny political satire. It is written as if a future woman president published what she wanted to say, before she becomes president. A look at politics through a different, and definitely provocative, lens. As a woman she has a lot to say about the insanity of war as a solution to anything in this century, much less labeling and drugging children instead of making schools exciting for young lives. A fast, furious, sometimes deep listen.

What is a moron? Do we have a single definition that is universally accepted? That is the problem. Until the past few years there hasn’t been a clear definition of the term moron. But now, as a result of the ingenuity of those who truly are in charge of the world, we have clear illustrations of the word. It is demonstrated daily by those who run for political office. The less they know, the better they seem to do in the political arena. It is proof that knowledge is dangerous. Given that we are now lowering the bar substantially and redefining words, thoughts and actions that never needed...

Jim Sams has undergone a metamorphosis. In his previous life he was ignored or loathed, but in his new incarnation he is the most powerful man in Britain - and it is his mission to carry out the will of the people. Nothing must get in his way: not the opposition, nor the dissenters within his own party. Not even the rules of parliamentary democracy. With trademark intelligence, insight and scabrous humour, Ian McEwan pays tribute to Franz Kafka’s most famous work to engage with a world turned on its head.

Sturgis Sturdevant is a professional troll. He works for a fake news website; he can’t seem to find a decent therapist or meet a nice girl; and it looks like he’s inadvertently joined a cult. If that wasn’t bad enough, Stu might also be a hypnotically programmed assassin.

"I liked you better before you became political. When all you cared about was making movies about cops, cyborgs, and brain-dead zombies." "I liked you better before you became one of those brain-dead zombies." Marxist-spouting professors. Tolerant Westside liberals refusing to be tolerant. Angry protesters beating motorists and appropriating their cars in the name of "justice." Is this hell? No, it's Los Angeles. On the most divisive day of the year, in the most racially-charged city in America, recently red-pilled movie producer John Duke is about to learn what political correctness really...

In the year 2067, political correctness has run amok in America. Political correctness is now the law of the land and anyone who runs afoul of the law can be arrested by the PC Police.
