Book review: How to Sound Cultured

A how-to guide for bluffing your way through intellectual conversations.

As you can probably tell from my review of How Good is Your Grammar, I consider myself prettttty smart.

(Yes, I have a healthy self esteem and no, you cannot shoot me down because of it). But cultured? No.

So I felt #blessed to come across How to Sound Cultured. It’s basically a how-to guide for bluffing your way through intellectual conversations.

It imparts wisdom via a brief bio of 250 people that pompous nerds love to namedrop. It also shares instructions on how and when to drop their names, so you too can sound like an artsy wanker! Best not to do that.

But it is handy to know why names such as Socrates and Walt Whitman made such a mark on history.
