Author: PARRIS, MATTHEW
There's no pleasure like a perfectly turned put-down (when it's directed at somebody else). Matthew Parris's sublime collection of the rudest, funniest, and most cutting insults in history contains:
- Extended literary invective
- Short verbal shin-kicks
This collection spans the worlds of art, politics, showbiz, marriage, and literature, taking us on a boisterous journey from ancient Roman graffiti to Twitter battles.
Whether you're looking for:
- The perfect elegant riposte
- The rudest polite letter ever written
- Or a brutal verbal sledgehammer
Scorn draws on masters such as Dorothy Parker, Elizabeth I, Winston Churchill, Princess Anne, and Alastair Campbell to show that abuse can be an exquisite art form.
