Synopsis "The Dictionary of Ugly Words"

This lexicon is popularly attributed to Craig Conley (author of HarperCollins' One-Letter Words: A Dictionary, Weiser Books' Magic Words: A Dictionary, and Webster's Dictionary of Improbabe Words, to name but three of hundreds). Conley himself neither disclaimed the work nor officially confirmed it as his own. It was discovered with no byline and possibly unfinished (though who can say? No lexicon is ever complete, given how language grows). Because this work features only literary examples of usage, Conley's idiosyncratic voice betrays itself, if at all, solely through the precise curation of terms. Note that certain entries feature asterisks, the significance of which is still being studied, with no contemporary theories having proved conclusive. They have been retained in this edition, exactly as they appeared in the original typescript.
