The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation
by Lynne TrussThis article relates to Eats, Shoots and Leaves
Since the success of Eats, Shoots and Leaves there have been a rash of
other books jumping on the bandwagon, such as Shoots, Leaves and Eats (a
cookbook), Eats, Shites and Leaves (a parody) and Eats, Poops & Leaves
(a book of baby etiquette for new parents)! One of the more recent
releases is
Grammar Snobs Are Great Big Meanies, which bills itself as the antidote
to Truss's book.
In addition Eats, Shoots and Leaves has spawned the usual range of
calendars and other promotional items, and in July 2006 a version for children
will be published, Eats Shoots & Leaves : Why, Commas Really Do Make a
Difference!
