Product Description
'I'm hooked on Forsyth's book ... Crikey, but this is addictive' - Mathew Parris, The Times.
Sunday Times Bestseller and Book of the Week on Radio Four.
The Etymologicon springs from Mark Forsyth's Inky Fool blog on the strange connections between words. It's an occasionally ribald, frequently witty and unerringly erudite guided tour of the secret labyrinth that lurks beneath the English language, taking in monks and monkeys, film buffs and buffaloes, and explaining precisely what the Rolling Stones have to do with gardening.
