Synopsis
Taken from the celebrated pages of The New Yorker magazine, these puzzles offer more challenges per empty square than the average crossword. Every cryptic has a twist, a little something extra, a double-dose of difficulty. That's because the clues all have two parts: a definition half and a wordplay half, with anagrams, reversals, containers, and lots of other word games built in., Ready for something that really tests your brainpower? These puzzles--taken from the celebrated pages of The New Yorker magazine--offer more challenges per "empty square" than the average crossword! Every cryptic has a twist, a little something extra, a double-dose of difficulty. That's because the clues all have two parts: a definition half and a wordplay half, with anagrams, reversals, containers, and lots of other word games built in., These puzzles - taken from the celebrated pages of The New Yorker magazine - offer more challenges per 'empty square' than the average crossword Every cryptic has a twist, a little something extra, a double-dose of difficulty. That's because the clues all have two parts: a definition half and a wordplay half, with anagrams, reversals, containers, and lots of other word games built in. For example, here's a clue: 'Reportedly lost in fog. (4 letters).' Got it? It's 'mist' - a homonym for 'missed' and also a synonym for 'fog'. An introduction enlightens you on all the intricacies of solving cryptic crosswords, and of course the solutions appear at the end with tricks behind the clues explained. It may take a little practice to get the hang of these, but once you do, you'll be hooked for good

    Item was exactly as described and shown in pictures. I am so beyond impressed with how quickly seller got my item in the mail and shipped to me. The item was well packed in bubble wrap, cardboard book box and plastic wrap. I appreciate the seller taking extra care to make sure it arrived in such good condition. Highly recommend.

    Minor damage at shipping, but it was packed really good, with double box (a box within a box). I guess, with a 40 lbs typewriter, that’s unavoidable, unless you ship it with the factory carton. Very responsive with the messages. An excellent seller.
