(\" I love the part where the whole family disembowels themselves.\" ) Speak to homicidal Parisian taxi drivers in a language they' ll understand: Ou avez-vous appris ? conduire? En Italie? (\" Where did you learn to drive? Italy?\" ) Discuss Italian olive oil with the proper degree of reverence: Un assaggio ti dice che le olive sono maturate di fronte ad una cattedrale. (\" One taste tells you the olives grew in full view of the cathedral.\" ) Establish privacy needs in Mexico: Preferir? a una habitaci? n sin alacranes. (\" I' d prefer a room without scorpions.\" ) With seven titles and over 1.2 million copies in print, Howard Tomb' s Wicked phrase book series is the fiendishly irreverent- and very successful- collection that gives travelers the words they wish they could utter while, say, attempting to find the exit of the Louvre or facing a plate of fugu (poisonous blowfish) in Japan.
