The Accidental Apostrophe: ... And Other Misadventures in Punctuation

Caroline Taggart brings her usual gently humorous approach to punctuation, pointing out what really matters and what doesn't. The trouble with punctuation - well, one of the troubles, anyway - is that too many of the experts suggest leaving it to the writer's judgement. what use is that if you've simply never been taught the difference between a colon and a semicolon, or where those wretched apostrophes go? The Accidental Apostrophe is a bit more helpful, clarifying the rules that do exist and setting out the options where the choice is yours. it expresses a view on what does and doesn't matter; what you can get away with; and whether the use of emojis makes the world a better place. It will also show you how to use punctuation to express emotion(!). Never again will you find yourself throwing punctuation marks around anywhere. This is a great gift for yourself or even as a funny gift for the friend who simply doesn't have a clue. This hardback book has 192 pages and measures: 20.4 x 13.5 x 1.8cm
