Bierce's classic work of satirical wit and Steadman's pointed pen redefine the way we see even the seemingly simplest of terms.
Acquaintance, n.: A person whom we know well enough to borrow from but not well enough to lend to.
Bride, n.: A woman with a great future behind her.
Consult, v: To seek another's approval of a course already decided on.
Ambrose Bierce's "dictionary" of epigrams, essays, verses, and vignettes targets the religious, the romantic, the political, and the economic, in equal measure. The book you need to define both friends and enemies, The Devil's Dictionary is also the perfect gift, showcasing Bierce's razor-sharp wit and Ralph Steadman's incisive pen to their best advantage.

挺過火的黑色幽默,沒有體係所以跳看瞭一遍。吐槽雖然犀利,但大多數詞條其實是刻意的叛逆和諷刺,所以看完之後倒頭就睡,並沒覺得充滿瞭罪過。

评分BEAUTY, n.The power by which a woman charms a lover and terrifies a husband. 啊哈~~
评分Diverting and tiresome. Although we can get some meaningful points from the new angle of interpretations about it, in fact, most of the extensions of these words r still rootless, which r constructed by the author's own world views. One-sided. But since all the talking about this dictionary is nonsense, then I think I'm sleepwalking.
