You Can't Get Blood Out of a Turnip (Warner Ilia Terzulli)(Pevná vazba)

Inspired by the success of The Son of a Duck is a Floater, Apricots Tomorrow and Unload your own Donkey, this gathering of Italian proverbs is intended to bring to its readers a smile of recognition from the discovery of a pooled aphoristic wit. Each proverb is given a literal translation and an English equivalent. These are sometimes identical, perhaps because of their Biblical or Latin origin, sometimes they are bizarrely askance as the title illustrates. Illustrated by Kathryn
