Hardcover. Zustand: As New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread in AS NEW condition. I include, gratis, the unread Uncorrected Proof (ARC) in paperback of Buckley's 2012 satirical novel TEP,DT? "The title refers to the supposed culinary propensities of the Chinese, but as this novel makes clear, it's said with more than a twist of irony. A lively and politically spirited read."--Kirkus Reviews. "Hilarious--full of wry observations on the follies of Washington high life. What makes it laugh-out-loud funny is Buckley's sense of how little you have to exaggerate to make Washington seem absurd."--New York Daily News. "If you've never read Christopher Buckley's fiction before, BOOMSDAY is the perfect introduction to the author Tom Wolfe calls 'one of the funniest writers in the English language' and Fortune deems 'the quintessential political novelist of our time.' In BOOMSDAY Buckley hilariously envisions the nation's next great brouhaha---generational warfare between profligate Baby Boomers and younger Americans who don't want to be stuck paying the bill, and how this conflict provokes the most outlandish presidential campaign in American history." Pristine copy in die-cut cover w/sharp corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, no jacket as issued; plus the pristine ARC of his subsequent satire, w/square & tight binding w/no creases in spine.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. Outraged over the mounting Social Security debt, Cassandra Devine, a charismatic 29-year-old blogger and member of Generation Whatever, incites massive cultural warfare when she politely suggests that Baby Boomers be given government incentives to kill themselves by age 75. Her modest proposal catches fire with millions of citizens, chief among them "an ambitious senator seeking the presidency." With the help of Washington's greatest spin doctor, the blogger and the politician try to ride the issue of euthanasia for Boomers (called "transitioning") all the way to the White House, over the objections of the Religious Right, and of course, the Baby Boomers, who are deeply offended by demonstrations on the golf courses of their retirement resorts. About the Author: Christopher Buckley, "the quintessential political novelist of his time" according to Fortune magazine, is the winner of the distinguished ninth annual Thurber Prize for American Humor, Tom Wolfe has described him as "one of the funniest writers in the English language." Buckley is the author of eleven books, many of them national bestsellers, including Thank You For Smoking, God Is My Broker, No Way To Treat A First Lady, and Florence of Arabia. His books have been translated into over a dozen languages, including Russian and Korean. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
