|summary=I don't usually start a review by telling you what a book ''isn't'', but in this case it's important. This isn't a light-hearted look at the subject, such as we found in [[Cliches: Avoid Them Like the Plague by Nigel Fountain]] and which - laughing and blushing in equal measure - we shelved under 'trivia'. This book will be shelved under 'reference': it's a rigorous look at the problem with the clichés divided not by subject matter, but grammatically and with an introduction to each section which gives all the information you need to help in making judgements about your own writing. This isn't a book to ''amuse'' you, but to help you to improve your use of words.
