This was Philip Roth's 5th book. The author won many literary awards during his career including a Pulitzer Prize in 1998. A ferocious political satire, Our Gang is Philip Roth's (1933-2018) brilliant response to the phenomenon of Richard M. Nixon. In the character of Trick E. Dixon, Roth shows a man who outdoes the severest cynic, a peace-loving Quaker and believer in the
sanctity of human life who doesn't have a problem with killing unarmed women and children in self-defense.
