Comedy, Book One

Arts & Literature

“Find hope ye who enter here, on a literary walkabout—a bold exploration of the democratic ideal —where we chat with Marx, Jefferson, Spinoza and, before it’s over, both Lincoln and Dante Alighieri. McGee charms, instructs, and provokes us through a field theory of human enlightenment, one thousand-plus years of art and literature, critiquing and finally levitating this twenty-first century, accomplishing in his Comedy something beyond the reach of most. Brilliance, married to enchantment.”
