Summary: The ULTIMATE satirization of America
Comment: If you have ever, i mean ever had a gripe with America, this book is for you, and who hasn't really. R. Crumb comes from so many differnet angels and makes fun of so many different ideologies and people in America, it really covers it all. Of course, he does it all in his unique style of sick humor that you must experience to know. You'll either love it or you'll throw upon first read. Let me warn you that this artist is considered to be by many "racist" "mysogynist" "hateful" "jingoist" "sadistic" "masochistic", etc... but his defense would be that he is an artist and is merely an observer and portrayer of what he sees around him in America. I'd agree that you shouldn't pretend taht things like racism don't exist. In any case some other conflicts he makes fun of and comments on are: corporate greed, military jingoism, mindless political correctness, sixties counter culture, utopianism, stereotypes of the "white man", the "angry black man", the "jewish conspiracy", hippies, losers, corporate scum, and just "normal" people...THis is not a book for children or people with high-blood pressure. He is a dangerous cartoonist and is always pushign the boundaries of everything. In the end though if this book is nothing else it is a laugh...at ourselves and everything else that is America.
