The phenomenal bestseller from the U.K. finally arrives in
the States! Have you even found yourself irritated when a
sine qua non or a mea culpa is thrown into the conversation
by a particularly annoying person? Or do distant memories of
afternoons spent struggling to learn obscure verbs fill you
with dread? Never fear! In this delightful guided tour of Latin, which features
everything from a Monty Python grammar lesson to Angelina
Jolie's tattoo and all the best snippets of prose and poetry
from two thousand years of literary history, Harry Mount
wipes the dust off those boring primers and breathes life
back into the greatest language of them all.
