| From Afterwit To Zemblanity by Simon Herton |
| In an age where limited vocabularies abound here is a collection of rare and neglected words that, if reintroduced, will help breathe much-needed life, savour and vitality back into the English language. Each of these 100 hand-picked words comes with a definition, a bona-fide quotation from literature, and various witty and entertaining apologetics from the author explaining its inclusion in the book. Each word perfectly describes an aspect of contemporary life that will undoubtedly resonate with readers who are fed up with the tired old language in general circulation. The author’s mission is to bring these words back into usage before they fall under another lexicographer’s hatchet. |
