"DICTIONARY, n. A malevolent literary device for cramping the growth of a language and making it hard and inelastic. This dictionary, however, is a most useful work."
Have you ever wondered how the devil would describe the world we live in?
This little book explains the world word by word, in a way you have never encountered before. With humour and many quotes to illustrate the meanings of things, Ambrose Bierce offers a different look on our world and whatīs inside.
This is not an ordinary dictionary; it is The Devilīs Dictionary.
