'Brilliant, revelatory and erudite. Like all the best books it lets you see the familiar world in a new way' Mark Forsyth, author of The Etymologicon

'Enlightening' Steven Pinker

Hell is other people. You are what you eat. Ignorance is bliss. Or is it?

Meet Phrased & Confused, a guide to the great quotations that we just keep getting wrong. From ancient maxims like 'seize the day' to modern classics like 'the road less travelled', Phrased & Confused sets the record straight on commonly misunderstood sayings—and reveals the meanings of famously difficult ones, from 'I think therefore I am' to 'a rose is a rose is a rose'.

Pairing witty commentary with light-hearted illustration from Liana Finck, this is the ideal resource for lovers of language, literature, history and philosophy, full of intelligence and insight for curious minds everywhere.
