AbstractHistoryArchive Description
In this collection of some of Ruth's best articles, we travel from observations of the American presidency, to notices on the walls of lifts, to the first love of a teenage boy. When language changes, when we misuse it, when we use a word out of context or borrow from an obtuse source, when we accidentally say the opposite of what we mean, Ruth will notice. Packed to the gunwales and awash with funny and poignant observations.
