This book is so good and necessary. Steve Almond's "stories" can be accessible to most readers, he's a breeze to read even if you don't read much non-fiction. He's obviously a competent fiction writer too, and I certainly wish these "stories" were fiction.
I hope this book is read by as many Americans as possible. Please borrow it from me.

"What one feels when [politicians] loom into view is just an overwhelming lack of interest, the sort of deep disengagement that is often a defense against pain. Against sadness. In fact, the likeliest reason why so many of us care so little about politics is that modern politicians make us sad, hurt us deep down in ways that are hard even to name, much less talk about." -David Foster Wallace, 2000

Bad Story #12, "Our court jesters will rescue the kingdom", is a call-out we need so badly right now.

"At each tee, a video of Trump greeted us, his lovely anus of a mouth extruding promotional syllables, his delicate hair panels radiating deserved self-love."
