'I'm hooked on Forsyth's book - Crikey, but this is addictive' Mathew Parris, The Times

'A perfect bit of stocking filler for the bookish member of the family, or just a cracking all-year-round-read. Highly recommended, Spectator --The Times and The Spectator

'The stocking-filler of the season, Robert McCrum, Observer

'This year's must-have stocking filler - the angel on the top of the tree, the satsuma in the sock, the threepenny bit in the plum pudding, the essential addition to the library in the smallest room is Mark Forsyth's The Etymologicon,' Ian Sansom, Guardian --The Observer and the Guardian

'Fascinating' Daily Mail

'One of the books of the year. It is too enjoyable for words,' Henry Coningsby, Bookseller, Waterstones Watford

'Kudos should go to Mark Forsyth, author of The Etymologicon - Clearly a man who knows his onions, Mr Forsyth must have worked 19 to the dozen, spotting red herrings and unravelling inkhorn terms, to bestow this boon - a work of the first water, to coin a phrase, Daily TelegraphNov --The Daily Mail, the Bookseller and the Telegraph
Présentation de l'éditeur :
The Etymologicon springs from Mark Forsyth's Inky Fool blog on the strange connections between words. It's an occasionally ribald, frequently witty and unerringly erudite guided tour of the secret labyrinth that lurks beneath the English language, taking in monks and monkeys, film buffs and buffaloes, and explaining precisely what the Rolling Stones have to do with gardening.
