No longer "the dead language", Latin has been given a whole new lease of life in a manner befitting twenty-first century folk and their daily chit-chat. From Sat Nav and MySpace to plastic surgery and bingedrinking, this language lover"s bible guarantees you"ll go down a storm when you"re invited to the Vatican.
SELLING POINTS:
• Absurd and quirky and bound to sell to the pedants who will want to criticise the translations.
