The Last Orangutan Part II by Steve Ravencroft

With savage satire and relentless rhyme, Steve Ravencroft unravels The Last Orangutan Part II: A Brief Summary of Trump’s Second Year in Office, a poetic retelling of Donald Tump’s second year in office. Written in verse, this clever narrative is thorough and acerbic, serving as a grimly whimsical reminder of America’s dubious recent past. Maintaining such a rigid rhyme scheme for 70+ pages is a monumental task, and while there are some lines that feel a little forced, Ravencroft has an eye for detail and a penchant for parody. For a lighthearted and potentially painful walk down memory lane, this unusual offering stands out for its originality and incisive wit.
