Figures of Speech: 60 Ways To Turn A Phrase

Figures of Speech' by Arthur Quinn, encourages the reader to write and flourish, keeping good faith in writing more openly, attuned to the rhythms of the intent and complexion of thoughts; rather stylishly,
revisiting the very idea of what constitutes style.

Quinn peppers many of these reflective, and often lying ‘dormant' or even ‘redundant', ‘figures' and its descriptions with a plethora of examples, many of which beckon to the true stylistic heritage of the literary greats.

Whether it is through Voltaire or Shakespeare, Montaigne or Milton, the writer's intention is to bring into light our deeper inclinations to not merely say something but to toil just enough and express our feelings, in the finely balanced swaying scale of language.
