The political satirist explores global capitalism and socialism, reflecting on the influence of money while providing insights into economics.
Patrick O'Rourke je americký politický satirik, jehož pronikavý humor a bystrý postřeh rozebírají absurditu moderního života. Jeho práce se často zaměřuje na politiku a kulturu s jedinečnou směsí cynismu a intelektuálního zájmu. O'Rourke je známý svým ostrým jazykem a schopností odhalovat pokrytectví s překvapivou naléhavostí. Jeho styl je nekompromisní a zároveň zábavný, což z něj činí nezbytného hlasatele v oblasti politické satiry.



The political satirist explores global capitalism and socialism, reflecting on the influence of money while providing insights into economics.
Politically incorrect and unflinchingly irreverent, this acerbic book, begun as an article by O'Rourke in The American Spectator and further contributed to by the magazine's readership, offers a hilarious take on all those "undesirables" we have to live with every day. Media tour.
In Holidays in Hell America's funniest writer takes on the role of tour guide with hilarious results. In this darkly satirical take on the travel writing genre, O'Rourke reports from trouble spots around the world; 'A Ramble through Lebanon' and 'Christmas in El Salvador' may sound unpromising, but when subjected to O'Rourke's blackly comic treatment they become gloriously entertaining inversions of the standard travelogue. The perfect antidote to political correctness, Holidays in Hell is also a clear-eyed look at humanity, or man's lack of it, around the world.
