About this book

Lynne Truss examines punctuation through its rules and everyday misuse. Apostrophes, commas, semicolons and other marks become subjects for a humorous discussion of how written English works. The book considers both correct usage and the reasons punctuation matters, drawing attention to the confusion small marks can create when placed carelessly.
