SCORN :THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION OF DISCOURTESY, RIDICULE AND NAKED CONTEMPT


SCORN :THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION OF DISCOURTESY, RIDICULE AND NAKED CONTEMPT

If you have ever racked your brains for a devastating put down, if you spleen in unvented, your bile untapped, here's the perfects opportunity to see how the masters and mistresses of the malicious deliver derision and unleash invective. From Nicholas Sarkozy's instruction to a voter 'Drop dead, you little cretin', to Groucho Marx's withering assessment of a new novel, 'From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down I was convulsed with laughter-someday I intend reading it', this book goes deeper and sharper than mere insult. It is a cauldron of scorn. It puts the piercingly clever alongside the thuggishly brutal, one line put-downs alongside damning trade-offs.
