{"product_id":"the-braindead-megaphone","title":"The Braindead Megaphone","description":"From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Man Booker Prize-winning novel Lincoln in the Bardo and the story collection Tenth of December, a 2013 National Book Award Finalist for Fiction.\n\nThe breakout book from \"the funniest writer in America\"--not to mention an official \"Genius\"--his first nonfiction collection ever.\n\nGeorge Saunders's first foray into nonfiction is comprised of essays on literature, travel, and politics. At the core of this unique collection are Saunders's travel essays based on his trips to seek out the mysteries of the \"Buddha Boy\" of Nepal; to attempt to indulge in the extravagant pleasures of Dubai; and to join the exploits of the minutemen at the Mexican border. Saunders expertly navigates the works of Mark Twain, Kurt Vonnegut, and Esther Forbes, and leads the reader across the rocky political landscape of modern America. Emblazoned with his trademark wit and singular vision, Saunders's endeavor into the art of the essay is testament to his exceptional range and ability as a writer and thinker.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 159448256X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.159448256X.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Saunders, George\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
