MONACHINO, Teresa — Words Fail Me.
Sovraccoperta
Phaidon Press 2006, unpaginated. Hardcover. Dust jacket with signs of use, else in very good condition. In this quirky new title designer and typographer Teresa Monachino rounds up and breaks down a variety of unruly words words lacking in integrity, misleading words that do not mean what they say, words that mean more than they say, words with inconsistent pronunciation or spellings that are just plain cruel! Using striking and witty graphic design the author demands answers to such troublesome questions as, why is abbreviation such a long word, does monosyllabic really need five syllables and why is lisp so hard to say if you have one?
