Variously described as 'the cleverest and wittiest work of the year, or bastard century even' ( Melody Maker ) or 'the funniest wisest book ever written' ( The Times ), The Onion team's first book, Our Dumb Century , was widely and hugely praised. Their second tome delivers more hilarious satire in the same vein as: 'Muhammed Ali KO's Ronald Reagan In Nursing Home Scuffle', 'Drugs Win Drugs War', or 'Martin Luther King: I Had A Really Weird Dream Last Night'. The strength of The Onion lies in the fact that the text underneath the brilliant headlines is just as funny. As Nicholas Lezard said of Our Dumb Century: 'I cannot imagine a funnier book being written - well, ever' ( Guardian )
