“Only Richard Lederer could make the complete decline of the English language so entertaining,” writes Mike Reiss, the Emmy Award winning writer and producer of The Simpsons. Lederer has been dubbed The Abbot of Absurdity, Attila the Pun, and Learning dressed up to have fun.

In The Revenge of Anguished English, Lederer leaves his listeners limp with laughter at how the innocent, the negligent, and the pompous mangle our beloved language. America’s most widely read anguished English expert exhibits 28 different kinds of super-duper bloopers, from student essays to headline howlers to political blunders.
