| Zusammenfassung: | "It all started in 2009 when Jón Gnarr founded the Best Party to satirize Iceland's leadership, which had precipitated the world-wide economic meltdown. Entering the race for mayor of Reykjavík, Iceland's capital, Gnarr promised to get the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park into downtown parks and to have a "drug-free Parliament by 2020." He also promised he'd break all his campaign promises. But then something strange happened: the Best Party emerged as the biggest vote-getter in the election. And just like that, a man whose previous foreign-relations experience consisted of a radio show in which he regularly crank-called the White House was soon meeting international leaders and being taken seriously as the mayor of a European capital. In this memoir, Gnarr recounts how it all happened and, with admirable candor, describes his vision of a more enlightened politics for the future. The point, he writes, is not to be afraid to get involved...or to take on the system"... |
