Sinopsis

A darkly humorous look at etiquette

In hyperbolic fashion, the preface to this volume reads, "There are times in the lives of us all in which we are at a loss for words. This volume attempts a partial solution." What follows are thirty things perhaps we shouldn't say, but find ourselves saying anyway. The book is pointedly funny.
