The World according to Charles Dickens

Playwright, actor, director, composer and singer, Noel Coward was one of the most accomplished entertainers of the twentieth century.

He was also an extraordinary wit, not only in his plays and songs, but also in his conversation.

This new collection gathers together hundreds of his most brilliant witticisms, from lines in famous plays like Blithe Spirit or lyrics from engaging songs like 'Mad Dogs and Englishmen', to jokes from his famous telegrams, satirical asides and deceptively savage put-downs.
