Talk to the Hand

0 - Default Title
Description
"Talk to the hand 'cause the face ain't listening," the saying goes. When did the world become so rude? It's a topic that has been simmering for years, and Lynne Truss says that it has now reached boiling point. Taking on the boorish behaviour that has become a point of pride for some, "Talk to the Hand" is a rallying cry for courtesy. Like "Eats, Shoots & Leaves", her three-million worldwide best-seller, it's a spirited conversation, not a stuffy guidebook. It's not about forks, for a start. What will it take to roll back a culture that applauds rudeness and finds it so amusing? For anyone who's fed up with the brutality of modern manners, "Talk to the Hand" is a colourful call to arms - from the wittiest defender of the civilised world.
