A very stylish book.

Warning: geek-out ahead — Penguin's new edition of the venerable writing manual Elements of Style by William Strunk & E.B. White comes jacketed in a sporty Corvette red hardcover, graced with the most lovely of type treatments and features beautiful illustrations by Maira Kalman. Most of us have a battered old paperback, raggedy with use and gray-cast as only pulpy writing manuals can be, but this new edition is a work of art. Finally, a packaging as stylish as the prose within. The JC gave me a copy for my birthday and I have not stopped swooning. Friends, if you have a nerd on your Chrismukkah list, do consider giftmas-ing this beautiful and useful book.

Next step: compact OED and Greek, Latin, and Sanskrit dictionaries. Nerd ho!
