In Defense of Naked Women by Mr. Fish is a riotous collection of cartoons, illustrations, personal essays, culture-war correspondence, and interviews with famous intellectual and artistic outlaws, who, like the author, are just trying to defuse the apocalyptic bomb that is the miracle of our Creation.

Drawn, painted, and collaged in Mr. Fish's many virtuosic styles, Naked Women is an eloquent take-no-prisoners response to American political life.

Praised by the Village Voice for its fearless satirical edge, the book acts as a 'wake-up pill' that challenges complacency and critiques the powers that be with bold, graphic broadsides.
