Articoli correlati a Le Bumper Book of Franglais
Amaze your friends and confound your critics with your fluent Franglais after these 101 hilarious lessons.
Franglais is the ultimate invented language. Baffling to our Gallic neighbours, but a source of unending delight to any English reader who has ever had to learn French at school, it is the creation of the great English humorist Miles Kington.
Enriched by more than fifty specially commissioned illustrations, Le Bumper Book of Franglais is a collection of pieces never before published in book form, written in the two-and-a-half decades up to the author's tragically early death in 2008.
These 101 miniature comic masterpieces present a timeless survey of the English character in all its absurdity. From Wimbledon to Windsor Safari Park, grouse-shooting to Guy Fawkes' night, the library to the lost property office, page after page is filled with wonderfully recognisable send-ups of our national life.
Not to mention the fact that after just 101 short (and highly enjoyable) lessons, even the most linguistically challenged reader will be thinking, dreaming and speaking Franglais. For, in the words of the grand master himself: 'Parler franglais -- c'est un doddle!'
