- Synopsis
- An essential collection of career-spanning writings by the political satirist and #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Parliament of Whores. From his early pieces for the National Lampoon, through his classic reporting as Rolling Stone&’s International Affairs editor in the 1980s and 1990s, and his brilliant, inimitable political journalism and analysis, P. J. O&’Rourke has been entertaining and provoking readers with high octane prose, a gonzo Republican attitude, and a rare ability to make you laugh out loud. Christopher Buckley once described his work as &“S. J. Perelman on acid.&” Thrown Under the Omnibus brings together his funniest, most outrageous, most controversial, and most loved pieces in the definitive O&’Rourke reader. Handpicked and introduced by the humorist himself, Thrown Under the Omnibus is the essential O&’Rourke anthology. &“The funniest writer in America.&” —The Wall Street Journal
