Our Gang (1971) is Philip Roth’s fifth novel. A marked departure from his previous book, the popular Portnoy’s Complaint, Our Gang is a political satire written in the form of a closet drama. Centered on the character of “Trick E. Dixon”, a caricature of then-President Richard Nixon, the book takes its cue from an actual quote from Nixon. –– Wikipedia

New Bantam edition, published June 1973.
