Reviews
"The Mueller Report of television criticism! James Poniewozik's Audience of One is both damning and illuminating, a witty, penetrating expose of Trump's most intimate relationship, the one with the medium that made him." -- Emily Nussbaum, television critic for The New Yorker
"With wit, insight, and clarity, James Poniewozik puts Trump at the center of a series of changes that swept through American popular culture and political systems. Poniewozik's essential book shows how these evolutions incubated Trumpism, even as Trump's rise exposed the limits and vulnerabilities of the media, which too often found itself floundering in the face of his shameless manipulations." -- Maureen Ryan, chief TV critic for Variety
"Illuminating... Poniewozik is a funny, acerbic and observant writer... [He] uses his ample comedic gifts in the service of describing a slow-boil tragedy. If humor is the rocket of his ICBM, the last three years of our lives are the destructive payload... Poniewozik brings a new microscope with which to analyze the drug-resistant bacterium that is our president. Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of Audience of One is that it makes Trump's presidency seem almost inevitable." -- Gary Shteyngart - The New York Times Book Review
