Book #26 The Sellout

The SelloutThe Sellout by Paul Beatty
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There is satire and then there is satire and The Sellout has it in spades. This burlesque lampooning in a send-up of race and politics in America is hilarious, outrageous, provocative and brilliant. There are laugh-out-loud moments (be careful where you read it!) and page after page of pure genius. It will undoubtedly appeal more to American readers, but wherever you are, do not miss this winner of The Man Booker Prize 2016.

Damn, I nearly choked on my burger…..
