Summary: A Glorious Cavalcade of Euphemisms
Rating: 5
This book is a glorious demonstration of all the terrible things that we can say about one other, spoken in the glancing hilarity of euphemism, and presented in a delightful concoction of erudition and etymology. Civilized people across the ages have gone to such lengths to avoid saying the worst, or to say the worst in more polite terms, and this book brings to bear more scholarship, thought, and whimsy to these words and phrases than was expected or thought possible, leading this reviewer to blush, giggle, and laugh out loud in the middle of a bookstore. Well-written, well-researched, and well-illustrated, it it marvel that the English language can express so beautifully the worst things in our nature to express. Sex, old age, excrement, pregnancy, and drunkenness are just a few of the topics treated euphemistically.
Summary: Bad Book
Rating: 1
Hated this book. Its more of a history lesson of where bad words came from and what they used to be called back in the day so basically you can now say them "nice" because she gives you the word people used back then and now they are nice becuase no one knows what the hell you are talking about if you use that word. So bad book if you bought it for what i thought the book was and good book if you like knowing where and why words came from. For sure, do not judge this book by the cover.
