The personality of Philomena Cunk shines through from the very first word to the last. Diane’s accent and voice rings in your head as you read the words. This is satire at it’s best. The book is formatted as an A to Z of things important to Philomena. She has a lovely bending of the truth and develops conspiracies of things that could be true. Philomena also has great word play, not just misspellings but using the wrong words in an innocent manner. Her character is dim, but nice. She presents an alternative view on history and life. Philomena Cunk has written essays about all things she knows from A to Zed. Each essay contains hilarious history that you can perfectly picture her talking to you about the subject. You will learn new things like how Australia's chief industry is spiders. This is written perfectly in Cunk prose so if you enjoyed any of her series, you will definitely enjoy this book. I like to read books before bed, but this one made me laugh too much that I had to read it in the daytime! There were sections of this book that made me almost cry laugh. As a grad student in Historic Preservation, this was such a delight to read!
