Lexicon of Musical Invective: Critical Assaults on Composers Since Beethoven's Time Paperback - 2000
by Nicolas Slonimsky
A snakeful of critical venom aimed at the composers and the classics of 19th- and 20th-century music, this collection of nasty barbs culled mostly from newspapers and magazines makes for hilarious reading and belongs on the shelf of everyone who loves---or hates--classical music.
First line
I suffered more than upon any occasion in my life apart from an incident or two connected with 'painless dentistry.'
