Proximal Birdflip: The Teleconference of Doctor Faustus in Bloomington, MN

Proximal BirdFlip (The Teleconference of Doctor Faustus) is a new novel - of satire and parody - which exists somewhere on a completely hypothetical continuum that supposedly includes Dante, Cervantes, Jonathan Swift, Joseph Heller, Mad Magazine, Babylon Bee, Mad Magazine & maybe even Terry Pratchett, with a dash of Evelyn Waugh - concerning the bio-pharmaceutical industry and the politics and bureaucracy of the recent BirdFlip pandemic of which you have doubtless heard. But if you think everything was hunky-dory and the FDA, the NIAID, the EMA, NHS and the TGA was filed with heroes and you can trust mRNA vaccines and Robert F. Kennedy is a conspiracy theorist & pharmaceutical companies are awesome, then you won't find this book funny, so don't even bother reading it.
