A new Lynn Truss book on punctuation “Twenty-odd Ducks: Why, every punctuation mark counts!
26 Apr, 12 | by Barry Pless
For those who share my passion for good punctuation, and who enjoyed Lynn Truss’s witty, clever, useful book “Eats Shoots and Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation”, I have just discovered that she has another such book out. The blurb below is from Amazon. [No, I do not get a cut of the profits.]
”Commas and apostrophes aren’t the only punctuation marks that can cause big trouble if they’re put in the wrong place. Now, Truss and Timmons put hyphens, parentheses, quotation marks, periods, and more in the spotlight, showing how which marks you choose and where you put them can cause hilarious mix-ups.”
