Forget scratching and hair-pulling, once a girl gets past the age of eight she knows that her deadliest weapon is her tongue. For centuries history really has been His Story - publicly, women have been spoken for by men and lived in a world created and controlled by men. But women have always had plenty to say and 'Women's Wicked Wit' is a selection of their sharpest and most acerbic comments on life.
This book is chock-full of wicked witticisms by women of every kind from Jane Austen to Roseanne Barr, Madonna to Margaret Thatcher.
Nothing and no-one escapes their glare, proving that when it comes to chopping someone down to size with a cutting remark, the female of the species is indeed more deadly than the male.
