Descripción de contraportada

NOT your mother's euphemism book
Did you know that there is an obscene gesture that is both older and more universally recognized than digitus impudicus?
Do you know what digitus impudicus is?
Likewise excrementum cerebellum vincit?
And just what is the Clinton Exculpation?
A shitepoke?
Why is an improcreant male called a mule?
Would you want to go to Europe with Ralph and
Earl in a Buick?
?All these questions and more are answered with wit and originality in Very Nice Ways to Say Very Bad Things.
Euphemisms serve a greater purpose than merely keeping the ladies at a garden party from glaring at us over the top of their spectacles. A few mincing words can also keep lawyers at bay. This subtle art of the insult can exact revenge without fear of retribution.
?Are you tired
of hearing those same
seven naughty words
again and again?

Very Nice Ways to Say Very Bad Things is also chock full of obscure facts about common terms. It will be impossible for readers to find a page that doesn?t enlighten or delight.

Acerca del autor

Researching her bestselling novels Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife and Darcy & Elizabeth, author Linda Berdoll was surprised and delighted by the euphemisms she turned up--most of them of an insulting nature. Berdoll compiled them here to entertain and enlighten. She lives on a pecan farm in Del Valle, Texas, with her husband.
