Here are the lies!

Nihilon is a country turned upside down. Two-storey buildings have wooden ground floors and concrete second floors. TV and radio news is announced as "Here are the lies!" Pets are part of the census in the city of Fludd, so when the dam breaks, the number of "souls" lost can be so much higher (international aid, don't you know). Natural resources are conjured out of thin air by geographers, to attract foreign mining operations. And on and on and on. This is a hugely funny book about the sort of cynicism you see in places like Yugoslavia, assorted third-world countries, and the UN. Highly recommended.
