Textul de pe ultima copertă

Bestselling author Richard Lederer has done it again with this collection of language gems, presented in his signature style - uncut, unpolished, and one hundred percent genuine. Fractured English is the only place you'll encounter this student's complaint: "I pass all my testes. My grade should be hirer", or this headache of a headline: "Legislators Tax Brains to Cut Deficit". Revel in the delightful anarchy of words run amok, but caveat emptor: "Richard Lederer's books are good medicine, except for the incontinent", writes an ardent admirer. Venture from the Mouths of Babes to Classified Classics, Poli-Tickle Speeches, Science Friction, Blessed Bloopers, and more.
