Buy from FlipkartA book for serious humour enthusiasts! Did you know that many words have a dark side, unbeknownst to most dictionaries? This book seeks to expose the debauched, the ribald, the irreverent and the non-conformist side of seemingly honest, God-fearing words and phrases and lay them bare for all to see. So here's a little sampler for you: Chaperone: A large contraceptive device recommended to you by your parents. Intuition: Sixth sense found in women. In men, it's tough to find even one. Pharaoh: Mummy who became daddy. Sex Appeal: A nocturnal begging ritual performed by husbands. Here's to the English language finally coming out of the closet Cheers!
P.V. Subramaniam is based in Mumbai, India. He is a dentist by profession, eking out a hand to mouth existence, but as a passionate writer, he believes in putting one's money where one's mouth is. Afflicted by wanderlust, he has written several articles for travel and in-flight magazines. He is a voracious reader and celebrates the pliability of the English language. He is serious enough to believe that humour is a dying art because people think that it is just for laughs. He loves nature and wildlife (including his wife), thinks he is a great photographer, and strongly espouses the cause of environmental conservation. He also thinks that he can save the world.
