#SAD: Doonesbury in the Time of Trump by G.B. Trudeau

Trudeau continues to skewer Trump and his administration’s corruption with satire that helps relieve the strain of watching the dismantling of civility and democracy; the stoking of racist, xenophobic, misogynist ideas; the ache of worry about the environment and future of climate. His cartoons do what satire does so well: Reframe the “ideas” being presented to point out how absurd they really are. The book is a relief to read in the midst of an alarming political time. - A.P.
