Description
Lacking that certain finesse at social functions Lost your savoir-faire Never know what to say Modern Manners has all the answers. How, for instance, do you introduce a younger sister who, until recently, was a younger brother Is it possible to vomit courteously What's the chic thing to throw in a food fight And why is it not done to commit suicide at someone else's funeral In today's complex world of shifting values and uncertainties, it's good to know that there are still certain standards we can aspire to. From the best-selling author of Republican Party Reptile and holidays in Hell, Modern Manners is the only guide to the social skills that really matter.
