Bierce's classic work of satirical wit and Steadman's pointed pen redefine the way we see even the seemingly simplest of terms.
Acquaintance, n.: A person whom we know well enough to borrow from but not well enough to lend to.
Bride, n.: A woman with a great future behind her.
Consult, v: To seek another's approval of a course already decided on.
Ambrose Bierce's "dictionary" of epigrams, essays, verses, and vignettes targets the religious, the romantic, the political, and the economic, in equal measure. The book you need to define both friends and enemies, The Devil's Dictionary is also the perfect gift, showcasing Bierce's razor-sharp wit and Ralph Steadman's incisive pen to their best advantage.

评分Diverting and tiresome. Although we can get some meaningful points from the new angle of interpretations about it, in fact, most of the extensions of these words r still rootless, which r constructed by the author's own world views. One-sided. But since all the talking about this dictionary is nonsense, then I think I'm sleepwalking.
评分挺过火的黑色幽默，没有体系所以跳看了一遍。吐槽虽然犀利，但大多数词条其实是刻意的叛逆和讽刺，所以看完之后倒头就睡，并没觉得充满了罪过。
