The Book of Don: A Sacred Chronicle of the Trump Era - Paperback
by T. B. Calder (Author)
Kirkus Reviews says: GET IT.
The Trump era, retold as scripture.
The Book of Don is a biting, deadpan satire of Donald Trump, television, power, politics, and the American talent for turning spectacle into belief.
Written as a mock sacred chronicle, it follows Trump from Queens to Manhattan, from The Apprentice to the White House, from golden escalator to pandemic, insurrection, exile, trials, return, and the unfinished gospel still being written around us.
At first, it is funny because it sounds absurd.
Then it is unsettling because it sounds familiar.
Towers become temples. Campaigns become crusades. Television becomes prophecy. The sacred hill is breached. The plague does not observe Easter. The story refuses to end.
This is not journalism.
This is not punditry.
This is the comic scripture of an age that turned politics into spectacle and spectacle into power.
Whether you love Trump, hate Trump, fear him, cheer him, mock him, defend him, or still cannot believe any of this happened, this is the version of the story you haven't read before.
Read it for the satire.
Keep it for the mirror it holds up to America.
Gift it to anyone still trying to understand what happened to the country.
