Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A satire for our demented times, following the arc of Donald Trump's career as it bends toward injustice, hits it, and then sinks still lower. Few politicians in history have deserved lampooning as richly as Donald Trump.And few have gotten their just deserts served up as deliciously as they are in TheTrumpiad,a work perceptively characterized by Stuart Klawans as "a true epic about a mock President." In their caustic, uproariousTrumpiad,poet Evan Eisenberg and artist Steve Brodner present a satire in verse for our demented times. Inspired by Swift, Byron, and Ogden Nash as much as by John Oliver and Stephen Colbert, Eisenberg sets the stage ("Muse, you're fired") and then traces our hero from the murk of his ancestry in the form of his grandfather Friedrich (an enterprising immigrant who ran a bordello) to the latest presidential high crimes and misadventures. Using a rakish, endlessly flexible five-line stanza he calls the Emilick-the love child of Emily Dickinson and Edward Lear- Eisenberg follows the arc of Trump's career as it bends toward injustice, hits it, and then sinks still lower.Brodner matches the poet punch for punch, in the spirit of such great satiric artists as Hogarth, Goya, and Daumier. About the illustrator: A regular contributor tothe NewYorker, Rolling Stone, the New York Times, Harper's, Esquire, Playboy, Mother Jones, the Nation, and the Los Angeles Times, Steve Brodner has been hailed by Lewis Lapham as "a born arsonist" and by Edward Sorel as "incomparable.the best caricaturist around."Widely credited with spearheading the revival of drawn satire over the past four decades, Brodner is therecipient of numerous awards, including the Hamilton King Award andthe Aronson Award for Social Justice Journalism. This is the ballad of Donald Trump, A tale of greed and gall; A tragedy birthed before our eyes- A man, his money, his mouth, his rise And if there's a God, his fall. -The Trumpiad. Brodner, Steve (ilustrador).…

Paperback. Condición: Good. "Dazzling . . . a prose epic." --The Washington Post A mountain peak, a rolling pasture, a boulevard alive with sound and light--each of us carries, deep inside, a dream of paradise.  In this magisterial contribution to the literature of ecology and the environment, our nostalgia for the myth of paradise--the primeval, self-sufficient, nurturing garden where mankind was born--is the starting point of a brilliant inquiry into what our place in Nature has been and ought to be.     Writing in lively, imaginative prose and drawing deftly upon disciplines as varied as biology, geology, anthropology, history, physics, and music, Evan Eisenberg examines the ways in which people have envisioned and tried to re-create the earthly paradise even as they have dealt with the often disastrous effects of their increasing manipulation of the environment. An encyclopedic survey of efforts to heal the dangerous rift between culture and nature, The Ecology of Eden is a landmark work that is enormously suggestive, informative, and a joy to read.      "It's a question many writers have tackled, from Paul Ehrlich to E. O. Wilson: How can we survive while population grows, resources dwindle . . . and the threat of global climate change looms ominously? Few have explored it with more originality or historic sweep. . . . A rich harvest, filled with many kernels of wisdom about the future of our elusive Eden." --San Francisco Chronicle      "An ambitious, thickly braided narrative that makes the clearest bid to nudge the dialectic along. . . . Eisenberg traces the story engagingly, energetically, with a remarkable breadth of learning and a metaphor-maker's eye. . . . A vision of substance and genuine insight." -Los Angeles Times Book Review.…
