Lunch with the American People: Satirical Food for Thought
Martin H. Levinson
About the Author
Martin H. Levinson was born in New York City and grew up in Brooklyn, a place known for wisecrackers who specialize in sarcasm and satire. He has published ten books and numerous articles and poems. He is a member of the Authors Guild, National Book Critics Circle, PEN America; book review editor for ETC: A Review of General Semantics, and contributing editor to The Satirist. He particularly enjoys writing satires, and has been penning them for as long as he can remember. He also enjoys walking in the woods on the North Fork of Long Island and kicking back with a chilled Riesling along with chill discussions on the state of this wonderful, woebegone, wacky world.
Lunch with the American People is a satirical tour de force that is high in irony and humor and low on platitudes and boring observations. Reading it will satisfy your hunger for smart, information-packed commentary on subjects ranging from politics and social affairs to self-improvement hucksterism. Holding up vice and folly to ridicule and scorn, Lunch with the American People continues satire’s great tradition of supplying constructive social criticism wherever needed.

Lunch with the American People proves imagination is more important than knowledge.
—Al Einstein, Scientist
Give me liberty or give me Lunch with the American People. On second thought, I’ll just take the book.
—Pat Henry, Orator
It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Just kidding. This book is amazing. I wish I had written it.
—Billy Shakespeare, Playwright
Lunch with the American People has all the ingredients of a great classic.

I’m over the moon for this book. You will be too.
