Product Description
Anguished English is the impossibly funny anthology of accidental assaults upon our common language. From bloopers and blunders to Signs of the Times to Mixed-Up Metaphors . . . from Two-Headed Headlines to Mangling Modifiers . . . it's a collection that will leave you roaring with delight and laughter.
Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
One of the fringe benefits of being an English or history teacher is receiving the occasional jewel of a student blooper in an essay or test paper.
