    1483: THE YEAR OF THREE KINGS by Giles St Aubyn is a masterpiece which demonstrates how simple, concise facts and arguments can totally annihilate the type of 'revisionist' history (actually pseudohistory in many cases) that has been used by the Ricardian lunatic fringe for several decades. How Giles would feel about an award given in his name going to David Veevers is hard to guess. THE GREAT DEFIANCE allows Veevers to passionately rail against a view of the less developed areas of the globe that no one seems to actually have. Like Marjorie Taylor Greene on Fox News, angrily opposing the teaching of Critical Race Theory in primary schools (despite no primary school teaching CRT) Veevers has followed her by inventing the perfect argument to oppose - even if it doesn't actually exist away from his fantasy of a heroic victory over a right wing stereotype at a political debate.

    "To succeed is bad taste" -- he nails it. The key to serious humour -- he has authored a book called 'Seriously Funny' -- is encoded in those words. For most of us life is a series of failures to look back on with a wry smile tinged with bitterness and then move on till disaster strikes. And that's the stuff of (serious) literature.
