Smut: An Anatomy of Dirt (1968) by Christian Enzensberger "is a fabulously tangible book. Enzensberger begins it with a guided tour de force of the different types of dirt -- distinguishing parings from peelings, things that crunch and crush from things that split and splinter, splashy things that spot and spatter from oily things that slither, slide, slip, slop and splutter.

It would be terrible if you could smell it, but somehow, framed by Enzensberger's prose, it becomes a delight to tour "accretions of mud clay slime slush ooze and bog … everything that crawls creeps writhes wriggles and twists, anything that slithers or spurts into existence worms its way out of holes or germinates swells dilates bubbles and bursts." -- Momus via http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,71763-0.html [Jan 2007]
