Penguin Books Releases 1000 FEELINGS FOR WHICH THERE ARE NO NAMES by Mario Giordano Today

They amaze us and hurt us, bring us to tears and make us laugh, delight us and keep us up at night: feelings that we know only too well, but which have eluded the English lexicon for so long. In 1000 FEELINGS FOR WHICH THERE ARE NO NAMES (Penguin Books; today, April 29, 2014; ISBN: 9780143125280; $16.00), author Mario Giordano catalogs those familiar emotions.

Perfect for cocktail parties, quiet reflection, daily inspiration, or travel entertainment, this delightful compendium is broken up into helpful sections that will fit your every mood, such as "Afternoon Feelings," "Nerd Feelings," "Heaven-help-me Feelings," or the somewhat more nebulous "Tangerine Feelings." Or try opening a page at random to help kiss writer's block goodbye. Don't forget to add your own feelings in the back of the book (before they get away!) and share with others.

Featuring hand-lettered illustrations, 1000 FEELINGS FOR WHICH THERE ARE NO NAMESis a delightful, quirky, and though-provoking collection.
