Book Description
The Economist "An encyclopedia of concise and sardonic wisdom."
Product Description: American master of sardonic wit Ambrose Bierce defined the epigram as a "short, sharp saying in prose or verse, frequently characterized by acidity or

(and many who otherwise haven't), this wonderful anthology is humorous, stimulating, and entertainingly edifying.
