This collection of Doonesbury begins with the long-awaited, never-expected marriage of Honey and Duke: hardly the social event of the season, it takes place in the American Embassy in Beijing and involves a groom who is only in it for the money--the $1 million offered by Donald Trump for the rescue of Ms. Huan, China's "No. 1 hooligan."The plot thickens...and thickens. Bad enough that eight friends are all cramped out in Mike and J.J.'s living room. When even Mr. Butts starts bringing home houseguests (like his old pals Mr. Jay and Mr. Caffeine) it's time for Mr. Doonesbury to see a psychiatrist. We meet the Divine Miss N, a pack of nicotine gum whose affair with William Bennett supplies him with 40 mgs a day. Buttsy clarifies the issue. "C'mon Billy Boy, wake up and smell the smoke! We have a drug czar who's a drug addict."You're Smokin' Now, Mr. Butts! is primo Trudeau--provocative, inimitable, and indispensable reading.
