Kleines Handbuch des Verhörens in German

Kleines Handbuch des Verhörens in German
There is a new German language book from Kunstmann Verlag called Der weiße Neger Wumbaba kehrt zurück, Kleines Handbuch des Verhörens 2. It talks about the many possibilities to phonetically misunderstand common phrases in a funny way. Highly recommended reading, but only if you are really fluent in German. BTW: there are even some English language examples included: the Iron Butterfly record "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" was a misunderstanding and should have been called originally "In the Garden of Eden".
