"SNIP...............
In his 1963 abecederian picture book The Gashlycrumb Tinies, Edward Gorey recounted the increasingly gruesome deaths of 26 children. In this parody the US game designer Mike Selinker outlines an A to Z of similarly gruesome eventualities he expects will befall a world in which Trump is president with each one illustrated by a favourite comic or fantasy artist.
Whilst listing all of the things that we would lose if Mr Trump ascended to Pennsylvania Avenue, I thought, Why dont people remember these things? Selinker writes in the introduction. And then I thought perhaps it was because they didnt have a mnemonic to remember it by. Something catchy. Something horrifying. And so this book.
