Deluxe Transitive Vampire a Handbook of Grammar for the Innocent the Eager & the Doomed Illustrated Hardcover in Original Dust Jacket 1993

<Condition is Very Good as Pictured> (normal wear, some markings)

—The Deluxe Transitive Vampire spins a lively gothic narrative with such characters as the Debu-tante, famous courtesan, wolf, bat, vampire, masto-don, pizza chef, lummox, lamia, and trilingual solitary. Gordon conjures up this eccentric cast with a uniquely wicked, witty, and playful style.Yet every rule is explained with great clarity and precision. While entertaining the reader with the unexpected, she makes the most intricate and impossible usages dear for the first time.

Here now is an enlarged version of the only handbook of grammar you will ever want to read. With this special edition, Karen Gordon gives the reader more illustrations and even more examples of confusing appositives, the many uses of gerunds, the complicated matter of agreements.

"You will not find a more charming or constructive companion than Karen Gordon," Kenneth Auchincloss reported in Newsweek when Ms. Gordon's punctuation book, The Well-Tempered Sentence, first appeared. "How rare it is to laugh as one studies a grammar text,"
