From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Pastoral comes a brilliantly indignant response to the phenomenon that was Richard M. Nixon. - "Disturbing, logical...and very funny.... In short, a masterpiece" --The New York Times Book Review
In the character of Trick E. Dixon, Roth shows us a man who outdoes the severest cynic, a peace-loving Quaker and believer in the sanctity of human life who doesn't have a problem with killing unarmed women and children in self-defense. A master politician with an honest sneer, he finds himself battling the Boy Scouts, declaring war on Pro-Pornography Denmark, all the time trusting in the basic indifference of the voting public.
