The Dictionary of Posh serves as an essential guide to the (ab)use of many English words by the decidedly up-market and the resultant and endangered language they speak: Posh.Hugh Kellett hilariously captures the spirit and nuances of those who speak Posh and, allied with Oliver Prestons brilliantly accurate cartoons, this book is the key to understanding and interpreting this language ? literally with tongue-in-cheek.Hidden within normal English is a separate language still spoken by those born with silver spoons in their mouths. Its called Posh. A word of English can be spelt the same but mean something completely different in Posh. If you say the word Mention in English, people will understand Remark upon; but in Posh this means a large house. Say Ace and speakers of Posh will think you are referring to a cold thing ones butler puts in ones G&T.

Do I need to say more?"I dont have to like you, to fuck you."If you know Larry Brown, you have heard his stories, reflections, and appreciations of life. His raw opinions that can captivate you or catch you off guard. Sometimes sweet, sometimes bitter, full of loving words and sharp jabs of wit. His sayings dont leave you indifferent whatsoever. What you will see on the following pages is a selection of some of these sayings. An anthology of his roughest, smartest, deepest and unapologetic self-expressions. Interpreted visually by Marcela Gutierrez, I hope these provoke, surprise, and delight.

P. J. ORourke was the funniest writer of his generation, one of the smartest and one of the most prolific. Now that he belongs to the ages, P.J. takes his rightful place along with Oscar Wilde, Mark Twain and Dorothy Parker in the Pantheon of Quote Gods. Christopher Buckley from his introductionWhen The Penguin Dictionary of Modern Humorous Quotations was published in 1994, P. J. ORourke had more entries than any living writer. And he kept writing funny stuff for another 28 years. Now, for the first time, the best material is collected in one volume. Edited by his longtime friend Terry McDonell, The Funny Stuff is arranged in six sections, organized by subject in alphabetical order from Agriculture to Xenophobia. Not only did P.J. write memorable one-liners, he also meticulously constructed riffs that built to a crescendo of hilarity and outrage - and are still being quoted years later. His prose has the electric verbal energy of Tom Wolfe or Hunter S. Thompson, but P.J. is more flat-out funny. And through it all comes his clear-eyed take on politics, economics, human nature - and fun. The Funny Stuff is a book for P.J. fans to devour but also a book that will bring new readers and stand as testament to one of the truly original American writers of the last 50 years.

Whether you agree with him or not, P.J. writes a helluva piece. Richard NixonP.J. ORourke has had a prolific career as one of Americas most celebrated humourists. But that career almost didnt happen. As he tells it, I began to write for pay in the spring of 1970. To tell the truth I didnt even mean to be a writer, I meant to be a race car driver, but I didnt have a race car.Fortunately for us, he had to settle for writing. From his early pieces for the National Lampoon (How to Drive fast on Drugs While Getting Your Wing-Wang Squeezed and Not Spill Your Drink), through his classic reporting as Rolling Stones International Affairs editor in the 80s and 90s (Among the Euroweenies), and his brilliant, inimitable political journalism and analysis (Parliament of Whores, Give War a Chance, Eat the Rich), P.J. has been entertaining and provoking readers with high octane prose, a gonzo Republican attitude and a rare ability to make you laugh out loud while silently reading to yourself. For the first time Thrown Under the Omnibus brings together his funniest, most outrageous, most controversial and most loved pieces in the definitive P.J. reader.

In this collection, actor and seanchaí (traditional storyteller) Éamon Kellys finest stories are collected for the first time: stories of the real Kerry and the magical past of the Gobán Saor, the heartbreak of emigration, the stations, the priests, the courting and dancing, the war between the sexes. Kelly mines a rich seam of humour and sadness out of resilience of a people rich in hospitality and generosity, imagination, culture and tradition.

La costa de Florida se caracteriza por sus bonitas urbanizaciones con el césped bien cortado, vecinos agradables y playas paradisiacas. Sin embargo, en esta novela, el sol también se pone sobre el alambre de espino y los fosos que rodean las casas; los vecinos no pueden disfrutar del jardin botanico pues fue bombardeo con misiles por el exalcalde; los niños no pueden jugar en el parque porque esta minado y los ciudadanos deliberan sobre linchamientos publicos. En este paisaje surrealista, el señor Robinson, medievalista aficionado y antiguo profesor de la escuela, tiene una epifania: ha llegado el momento de revertir la situacion y la mejor forma de hacerlo es presentarse a alcalde. La primera novela de Donald Antrim es una satira sobre lo que podria ser en un futuro la sociedad norteamericana presa de sus paranoias y de su obsesion con las armas
