Eats, Shites and Leaves is a celebration of all things shite about the misuse of English, highlighting the prevalence of absent apostrophes, ghastly grammar, suspect sentences, rambling repetitiveness, commentators' claptrap, tortuous tautologies, insane instructions, and quirky quotations in society today.

Featuring a plethora of examples that show how to get the worst out of the world's most commonly spoken language Eats, Shites & Leaves is a wittily informative insight into how the English language can be used and abused in the twenty-first century.

About the Author

Of Hungarian extraction, Antal Parody (originally Parodi) fled to Britain from either Buda or Pest - sources differ - in the late 1940s, following the collapse of the so-called 'Mashed-Potato Revolution'. Described as 'a genius' by the Bookseller, he is the author of two previous bestsellers. Sadly, Professzor-Doktor Parody now lives in exile in Europe, following a 'misunderstanding' with the City of Glasgow Police in 2003.
