New Zealand's sharpest political pen strikes again in Pickering Again!, a follow-up collection of biting editorial cartoons from the country's most provocative caricaturist, Larry Pickering. With razor-sharp wit and an unflinching eye for political absurdity, Pickering dissects the personalities and power plays of Australasian politics, reducing the mighty to the ridiculous with a single, masterful stroke of his pen. Each panel crackles with irreverence, presenting public figures at their most exposed and politicians at their most pompous. Pickering's draftsmanship is as precise as his satire is savage — his caricatures are not merely funny, they are forensic, stripping away the veneer of public life to reveal the hubris and folly beneath. A worthy successor to his debut anthology, this collection cements his reputation as a titan of the cartoon form and a fearless commentator on the theatre of democracy. For anyone who has ever suspected that the best political analysis comes not from the editorial page, but from the cartoon strip beside it, this volume will leave you wondering what took you so long to look.
