A brilliant parody of the children's classic Goodnight Moon, built around the coming end of the worst presidency ever.
Goodnight Bush: An Unauthorized Parody is a hilarious and poignant visual requiem for the Bush administration. In it we see a childlike George W. Bush tucked safely away in the confines of his own room with all of the toys he's willfully destroyed, abused, or defaced. Complete with a quiet Dick Cheney whispering "hush," this bedtime story lets us finally say goodnight to the disaster that was the last eight years.
Erich Origen and Gan Golan are writers and artists residing in the San Francisco Bay Area.
"Goodnight Bush stands to become a popular American political parody."
-San Francisco Chronicle
"This might be one of the greatest works of fiction of all time ever--up there with the Bible, the Constitution, and those books about the blonde siblings who slept together in their attic."
-BlackBook Magazine
"You must get your copy of this book....A wicked, savage parody."
-Courier-Journal
"Seldom have an administration's failings been set to such a lulling cadence."
-Salon.com
