As the Devil guides Bogges through a series of bizarre therapy sessions, he entices him with a doctrine of laughter and mirth inspired by the 16th-century writer Fran?ois Rabelais. Meanwhile, Bogges, under a pseudonym, pens a letter to his own page suggesting that society would be better off if everyone simply minded their own business. To his surprise, the slogan seizes the imagination of all of Washington's inhabitants, with even Trump jumping on board--for his own selfish ends. The result is an absurd spiral of civil unrest that momentarily brings history to a halt. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With biting wit and resonant themes, \u003ci\u003eDevil Take It\u003c\/i\u003e skewers the political and social landscape in a way that is reminiscent of the great masters of satire from Mark Twain to Mihkail Bulgakov and John Kennedy Toole.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 12, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47261247013113,"sku":"9781949846621","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/TImROUnPun9781949846621.webp?v=1768797154","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/devil-take-it-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
