The tone of The Art of the Eel: When Elon Met Don is satirical, irreverent, and playfully cynical. The novel uses humor, exaggeration, and irony to critique the personalities, actions, and ideologies of its central figures, Elon Musk and Donald Trump, as well as the broader dynamics of the digital age, politics, and technology. While the tone is lighthearted and occasionally absurd, it is also deeply reflective, offering a sharp commentary on the complexities and contradictions of modern society. The novel balances humor with insightful observations, making the reader question the nature of power, influence, and the rapidly changing world around us. It invites readers to laugh at the absurdity of the situations, while simultaneously encouraging them to reflect on the deeper implications of technological advancements, personal ambition, and the shifting power structures in today's world. The tone is intentionally over-the-top at times, pushing the boundaries of satire to both entertain and provoke thought.
