About this Item

Signatures from three of four authors (Lea Rush, Debbie Dingerson, Lisa Cofield) on title page. Strange quasi-feminist satirical lexicon survives as confusing testament to an age of misguide humor and garish graphic design, but, insofar as conditions are concerned, this volume may as well have been published yesterday. Likely plucked as new from bookshop stock and never disturbed. See photos.

About this title

Synopsis

Men and women sometimes (often?) speak different languages. To overcome this problem, this humorous, highly creative dictionary offers words the way Mrs Webster would have defined them. The definitions here are witty, accurate--and free of "male bashing." (Great Quotations, Inc.)

"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

Store Description

These volumes represent the cream of my aunt's voluminous collection, which includes signed first editions from a friend's defunct Lincoln City store, antiquarian tomes a Reed professor bequeathed decades ago, and the art & design section of downtown Portland's long-lamented NorWester Bookshop. Given spatial constraints, I've little choice but to liquidate the inventory she spent a lifetime accumulating, but my dilemma opens opportunities for the right consumer. Shop freely and enjoy in her memory!
