'Brilliant! Will make a perfect Xmas stocking filler' Bronya Ralley
'Delightful. This dip-in-anywhere book put a smile on my face from
the first page . . . for everyone who likes a good chuckle' Ruth
Milligan As we all know, the oxymoron is one of the great beauties
of the English language. It has been defined as 'a figure of speech
that juxtaposes elements that appear to be contradictory'. Famous
examples would include 'bitter-sweet', 'open secret' and
'compassionate Conservatism'. Seriously Funny, and Other Oxymorons
brings together a great many examples of the oxymoron genre,
amusingly illustrated by Paul Thomas. The book is arranged
according to various categories ranging from Popular Culture to
Political Principles and Business Ethics, all covered in Simon
Brett's inimitably witty style. Anyone with an 'unbiased opinion'
will quickly grasp that Seriously Funny makes a 'devilishly nice'
book.
