Susie Dent – Word Perfect
A brand-new tour of the joys of the English language with ‘Britain’s best-loved
wordsmith’
Following on from her hit show ‘The Secret Life of Words’, Susie Dent is back with a
brand-new collection of facts and stories from the wonderful world of words. Have
you ever wondered whether there’s a word for going to the fridge for the umpteenth
time in search of something new? Or puzzled over the reason why a group of crows
is called a ‘murder’, while owls form a ‘parliament’? Is teen slang actually designed
to make us tear our hair out? And just how many words do we need for being
drunk?
With the help of funny, insightful, and head-scratching examples, Susie will entertain
and educate us with her pick of language’s greatest hits. Word Perfect will remind us
just how unpredictable, wayward, and utterly magical our mother tongue can be.
