Few books how as well through time as A Modest Proposal does. Witty, hilarious, painfully accurate. Still relevant in current world affairs.

Honestly, I would have never found out about this book if it weren't for school. I was glad, though. It is short, concise, and precise in dissing the English and being satirical. It is so well constructed I'm writing a paper on it. But be warned! It is not a book for the squeamish.
