"I want you to understand I do not use my best language in this place."
- A seven-year-old girl after her grammar was corrected
When Wit Comes Home
Some of the best replies are made at home. A child's answer unsettles a parent; a husband or wife gets the last word; a casual encounter takes a turn nobody expected.
Everyday Wit gathers anecdotes from social and domestic life, where quick answers, misunderstandings, and ordinary human failings supply the comedy. Drawn from period collections and edited for modern readers, these stories preserve the timing and character of an earlier age.
Across six sections, the collection follows children and parents, marriage and romance, life out and about, money and work, travel, and leisure. Alongside the sharp retort are longer stories whose humor unfolds through what people do as much as what they say.
Everyday Wit is the second volume in Classic Eloquence, an ongoing series devoted to recovering the lost art of verbal wit.
