CRITICAL CITADEL


Ever the puckish provocateur, my good friend Currado Malaspina has entered the cauldron of contentious Middle East politics. In the spirit of Honoré Daumier, he has recently published a series of uproariously scathing cartoons in the British satirical magazine The Toasty Baker.

Most of the drawings are unsuitable for reproduction - there is a generous sampling of dangling ankle spankers, wilted mamillae and detonated feculence - but the one that has gotten the most attention happens to be the most Orphic.



And the most priapic.
