"Sin and Syntax is more than just a style manual with examinations of sentence structure and parts of speech. In addition to spelling out the basic rules, Constance Hale teaches you when - and how - to effectively break them. Chock full of examples from traditional and nontraditional prose - from advertising jingles to song lyrics to literary classics - Sin and Syntax shows you why learning to "sin" will make you a better writer." --Book Jacket.
