This is a savage society of imperfect endings veiled by a thin veneer of civility. Nothing is Golden is the brand name for a line of irreverent postcard books and merchandise for adults that parody, among other things, famous children's book brands in order to bring a dose of realism and wry commentary into readers' lives. Inspired by real world slices of life, the front of each postcard sports an imaginary children's book illustration and title with an accompanying editorial comment on the back side.
