Title: Entertaining and Enlightening
Product review: While reading this book I learned that telling friends that one is reading a book on punctuation results in puzzled looks. Nonetheless, I found this book to be both a helpful refresher course in correct pronunciation and a highly entertaining and enlightening read. Looking at other reviews, it is evident that some people do not understand or appreciate British humor. I found that I could not read it in public without embarrassing myself laughing out loud. While providing such comic relief, Truss reviews the history of various punctuation marks, demonstrates proper usage, and makes a compelling case for the importance of correct pronunciation in this unfortunate age of e-mail communications -- not to mention online book reviews.
