Horton, Thidwick, Yertle, the Lorax, the Grinch, Sneetches, and the Cat in the Hat are just a handful of the bizarre and beloved characters Theodor S.

"A Ditadura Encurralada", quarto livro de Elio Gaspari, narra o processo de isolamento político que o presidente Ernesto Geisel e seu chefe do Gabinete Civil, Golbery do Couto e Silva, impuseram à linha dura do regime militar. Nos mil dias que transcorreram entre o final da censura ao jornal O Estado de S. Paulo, pouco depois da derrota eleitoral de 1974 (episódio narrado no terceiro volume da série), e a demissão do general Sylvio Frota, em 77, Geisel e Golbery se viram emparedados entre os representantes mais radicais da máquina repressiva e os movimentos sociais, que ganhavam novo fôlego. Para escrever este livro, Elio Gaspari valeu-se de um precioso arquivo de papéis e gravações confidenciais reunidos por Golbery e pelo secretário particular de Geisel, Heitor Ferreira.
