MOTHER TONGUE - BILL BRYSON KARTONIERT (TB)

Only Bill Bryson could make a book about the English language so entertaining. With his
boundless enthusiasm and restless eye for the absurd  this is his astonishing tour of English.
From its mongrel origins to its status as the world's most-spoken tongue  its apparent
simplicity to its deceptive complexity  its vibrant swearing to its uncertain spelling and
pronunciation  Bryson covers all this as well as the many curious eccentricities that make it
as maddening to learn as it is flexible to use. Bill Bryson's classic Mother Tongue is a highly
readable and hilarious tale of how English came to be the world's language.
