About this product
Product Information
The Winner of the Slow Bicycle Race collects both Krassner's later stories, as well as his most famous satirical pieces from past years. Swiftian in intention and contemporary in subject matter, the book reveals Krassner to have the heart of a muckraker and the spirituality of a seeker after truth. In Krassner's world, Lyndon Johnson chuckles over the dead corpse of J.F.K., a psychiatrist hypnotically regresses a woman who shot her television set, and Nancy Reagan's "Just say no to drugs" becomes "If anybody tries to sell you an ounce of marijuana for $500, that's way too expensive, so just say no." Kneading fantasy into reality, Krassner ferrets out the higher truths that spotlight the absurdity all around.

Reviews
"Get ready for another innocently subversive (or subversively innocent) gem from humor radical/stand-up comic/publisher Paul Krassner ... Krassner makes readers question reality and dig for the truth, a lesson that, even today, is still a radical act." - The Advocate Literary Supplement "Krassner has the rare ability to alter one's perception permanently." - Los Angeles Times "An expert at ferreting out hypocrisy and absurdism from the more solemn crannies of American culture." -Stephen Holden, New York Times

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
