**An essential collection of career-spanning writings by the political satirist and #1 *New York Times* -bestselling author of *Parliament of Whores*.**
From his early pieces for the *National Lampoon* , through his classic reporting as *Rolling Stone* 's International Affairs editor in the 1980s and 1990s, and his brilliant, inimitable political journalism and analysis, P. J. O'Rourke has been entertaining and provoking readers with high octane prose, a gonzo Republican attitude, and a rare ability to make you laugh out loud. Christopher Buckley once described his work as "S. J. Perelman on acid."
*Thrown Under the Omnibus* brings together his funniest, most outrageous, most controversial, and most loved pieces in the definitive O'Rourke reader. Handpicked and introduced by the humorist himself, *Thrown Under the Omnibus* is the essential O'Rourke anthology.
"The funniest writer in America." -- *The Wall Street Journal*
