The Bedeviled Dictionary

Cover of the book The Bedeviled Dictionary: A Lexicon of Wicked Wordplay.Have you ever noticed an unfamiliar word or expression suddenly popping up everywhere and wondered ‘What’s that supposed to mean?’ Or, conversely, encountered some new cultural phenonmenon and had no word to describe it? If so, the Bedeviled Dictionary is for you.

Written by L.K. Peterson and Martin Kozlowski, this Lexicon of Wicked Word Play offers a Funkin' Wagnalls-worth of dastardly definitions of strange words you may have heard and weirder ones you'll likely wish you hadn't. Along with a Stygian array of unspeakable illustrations.

L.K. Peterson’s books include Fairly Grim Tales, The Da Vinci Cold, Talk to the Hair, The 2012 Doomsday Planner, Further Adventures: Now What Anthology #1, Political Animals: Now What Anthology #2, and Karen in Wonderland. He is also entirely to blame for the website Ant Farmer’s Almanac.

Martin Kozlowski has chronicled the social and political scenes in a wide range of publications. He art directs the weekly editorial illustration service at inxart.com and is co-publisher at nowwhatmedia.com. Samples of his illustration and comics work are available at martinkozlowski.com.
