Snark Handbook, The: Insult Edition

Lawrence Dorfman
Snark: biting wit, smartass remark, slyly disparaging comment, bastardisation of snide remark. It's impossible to go a full day without using snark, so why fight it? Snark is everywhere, from television to movies to everyday life.
Renowned snark scholar Lawrence Dorfman is back, bringing together the worlds of snark and insult. The result is nothing short of brilliant. Friend, you hold much more than a book of quotes, but so much less than a masterpiece like Crime and Punishment. Comebacks and curiosities, jokes and philosophical witticisms, all come together in this instant classic. Includes snarks such as "You're a mouse studying to be a rat." - Wilson Mizner or "Mr. Huxley is perhaps one of those people who have to perpetrate thirty bad novels before producing a good one."- T. S. Eliot on Aldous Huxley or "He knows so little and knows it so fluently." Ellen Glasgow.
