Description & Details
Afterliff Description
Afterliff
What should we call 'something that looks like minced beef but
isn't'? Minsk, of course! 'Luxuriant nostril hairs'? Utrillas!
Three decades after Douglas Adams and QI creator John Lloyd
compiled The Meaning of Liff, here is a new collection of more than
900 familiar things that have hitherto remained unnamed, an
oversight now corrected by recycling the appellations of places
near and far.
