The British Grammar Nazi

Lynne Truss, a British writer and author of Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation gets a taste of her own medicine from Louis Menand of the New Yorker. Menand thoroughly examines her screed against poor grammar and punctuation and finds that it is rife with grammatical and usage errors. It’s a very interesting read, especially if you’re a writer or a grammar nazi.
