Anguished English by Richard Lederer

"Richard Lederer is the true king of language comedy. Anguished Englishis the funniest book I have ever read."-Sidney Sheldon

Anguished English is the impossibly funny anthology of accidental assaults upon our language. From bloopers and blunders to Signs of the Times to Mixed Up Metaphors . . . from Two-Headed Headlines to Mangling Modifiers, here is an outrageous treasury of assaults upon our common language that will leave you roaring with delight and laughter.

Richard Lederer, Ph.D., has written over thirty volumes on the English language, including Anguished English, A Man of Mine Words, Comma Sense, and, most recently, Word Wizard. His nationally syndicated column Looking at Language runs in newspapers and magazines across the country, and he is a regular radio language analyst. He and his wife, Simone van Egeren, live in San Diego.
