This collection represents the best quotations from Ulysses S.
Grant, 18th President of the United States and general-in-chief of
the Union forces during the Civil War.
Ever feel like you are pedalling in the choucroute? Been caught
with your beard in the mailbox again? Or maybe you just wish
everyone would stop ironing your head? Speaking in Tongues brings
the weird, wonderful and surprising nuanced beauty of language to
life with over fifty gorgeous watercolour and ink illustrations.
Here you will find the perfect romantic expression, such as the
Spanish tu eres mi media naranja, or 'you are the love of my life,
my soulmate', and the bizarre, including dancing bears and broken
pots, feeding donkeys sponge cake, a head full of crickets, and
clouds and radishes. All encourage new ways of thinking about the
world around us, and breathe magnificent life into the everyday.
These phrases from across the world are ageless and endlessly
enchanting, passed down through generations. Now they are yours.
