04.22: Between You and Me: Confessions of a Comma Queen

2015-03-18 19:04:47| Powells Books Events Calendar

Mary Norris has spent more than three decades in The New Yorker's copy department, maintaining its celebrated high standards. Now she brings her vast experience, good cheer, and finely sharpened pencils to help the rest of us in a boisterous language book as full of life as it is of practical advice. Between You and Me (W. W. Norton) features Norris's laugh-out-loud descriptions of some of the most common and vexing problems in spelling, punctuation, and usage. Readers and writers will find in Norris neither a scold nor a softie, but a wise and witty new friend in love with language and alive to the glories of its use in America, even in the age of autocorrect and spell check.
