From the biting irony of Swift’s A Modest Proposal to the bureaucratic absurdity of Heller’s Catch-22, satire has long been a tool for exposing society’s flaws—one dark laugh at a time. Red Széll explains the wit of satire, and shares his top satirical picks. We explore classics and contemporary gems, including Terry Pratchett’s wildly entertaining Going Postal and Paul Beatty’s provocative The Sellout.

Books discussed in this episode are:

Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift

A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift

Animal Farm by George Orwell

Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

Going Postal by Terry Pratchett

The Sellout by Paul Beatty
