What does America mean today? Anyone who knows there isn't really a right answer to that question will want to read Barack Hussein Obama - a book about Americans, about their country and about their president. Yet this is not really a graphic novel, nor is it a biography or an experiment, but rather a whole, fully-realised parallel America, a dada-esque, surrealistic vision that is no more cockeyed than the real thing; its weirdness no more weird, its vision of the world no more terrifying.
