Jaegons reviewed Thank You for Smoking by Christopher Buckley
Decent book about the stupidity of our society
3 stars
Content warning Spoilers ahead!
This books shows some stupid treatment of harmful stuff by the media and lobbies in parliaments of all countries, especially the US. It often omits the larger economical that drive people to whatever is happening, and thus is pushing the narrative that things can be fixed, only if you make some lobbyists stop getting time on the TV programmes.
Also, the ending feels poorly-written, as if the writer completely forgot about Nick's son and as if the guy spent only a few hours in prison. In reality, this place can change people a lot.
