The art of stylish conversation

The new book of Alexander von Schienburg, the author of the bestseller "The art of stylish poverty", is about a light, laid -back conversation, or, as the British say, "SmalltAlk", which should begin freely, with trifles.

There is nothing easier, says Alexander von Scheunburg than to attract the attention of people with a skillful conversation. This witty and cheerful book about the great art of a small conversation is necessary for everyone who wants to learn brilliantly and stylishly to behave even in the most difficult situations.

Do you need to be educated in order to be able to have a good conversation? No, education is more likely to interfere ... The most important law of the conversation reads: you should not be boring with you! I remain with my own: the worst sin in the conversation is to make my partner be bored.
Alexander von Sheyonburg
