HE'S BACK.
AND HE'S THE BIGGEST THING IN POLITICS.
He is the perfect presidential candidate. Conservatives love his hard-hitting Republican rΓ©sumΓ©. Liberals love his peaceful, progressive practicality. The media canβt get enough of his larger-than-life personality. And all the American people love that heβs an honest, hard-working man who tells it like it is.

A most extraordinary satire, Jason Hellerβs debut novel follows the strange new life of a presidential Rip Van Winkle: a man who never even wanted the White House in the first place, yet finds himself hurtling toward it once moreβthis time, through the media-fueled madness of 21st-century America.
