Your Leader Could be a Tyrant, How to Tell

Artists: Ann E. Kalmbach and Tatana Kellner

Inspired by the rise in ultra-nationalism and worldwide threat to democratic ideas and principles, Your Leader Could be a Tyrant, How to Tell incorporates silhouetted images of each tyrant with hand-stamped text about their peculiar habits, statistical information about their rule, and accompanying texts discussing common traits of dictators. Originally conceived as a companion to Your Co-Worker Could Be A Space Alien from 1985, this book mixes humor and horror to underscore our contemporary reality.
