Sex, drugs, scandals, murder, suicides and President Warren G. Harding. THE BLOVIATOR is a satirical novel, "a fiction fueled by fact," based on the true, last (and unbelievably bizarre) 6 months in the life of America's 29th President. THE BLOVIATOR is an epic, a massive and sprawling work - it is history as absurdity, as if it were being filtered through a cracked prism - but the prism is not cracked as most of the story told is unbelievably, incredibly true.
