Description

The "impossible to put down" compendium of linguistic bloopers and blunders: a hilarious collection of malapropisms, mixed metaphors and more (San Francisco Chronicle).

In Anguished English, Richard Lederer collects some of the worst -- and funniest -- English language errors ever committed to print. From legendary student screwups to horrible headlines and cringe-worthy advertising copy, Lederer shares a treasure trove of laugh-out-loud flubs and gaffes worthy of a Pullet Surprise.

"Hilarious." -- Chicago Tribune

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