Politics

"Politics tells the story of a father and daughter. It also tells the story of a menage a trois." "Politics explores crucial domestic problems of sexual etiquette. What should the sleeping arrangements be in a menage a trois? Is it polite to read while two people have sex beside you? Is it permissible to be jealous? If you have eczema, may you complain the undinism can be painful?" "Politics is a comedy about kindness." "And, at the same time, it is also about Milan Kundera, blow jobs, Chairman Mao's personal hygiene, Vaclav Havel, half-Jewishness, Bollywood, shopping, Hitler's sexual fetish, selfishness, Osip Mandelstam, premature ejaculation, the late Queen Mother, thrush, Stalin on the phone, politeness, pink fluffy handcuffs, and Antonio Gramsci's theory of hegemony." "Politics is not about politics."--BOOK JACKET
