Give Those Nymphs Some Hooters! (A Doonesbury Book) #[nn]
In this 1989 collection of Doonesbury strips, G. B. Trudeau delivers a sharp, satirical snapshot of American life with J.J. giving birth live on cable while her and Mike’s relationship reignites, Zonker stepping in as the kids’ babysitter, and Mike’s ill-fated design of Mr. Butts sparking controversy. From George Bush’s eerie Skull & Bones escapades to Andy’s quiet return home after an AIDS diagnosis, the story blends biting political satire with intimate personal moments, all rendered in Trudeau’s signature bold, expressive style—both interior and on the cover by him.
