A prize for the oddest book title of the year has been awarded to Cooking
With Poo. Thankfully, the term refers to the Thai nickname of its author,
Saiyuud Diwong, rather than to his ingredients. The word translates as
"crab".Second place went to Mr Andoh's Pennine Diary: Memoirs of a Japanese Chicken Sexer in 1935 Hebden Bridge. Third was The Great Singapore Penis Panic and the Future of American Mass Hysteria.
The Diagram Prize is an annual award run by The Bookseller and decided by a
public vote on the magazine's website.
Horace Bent, the prize's custodian, said: "It appears that this year's prize will go down in history as a blue year."
