Explosive! This Fourth of July, declare your independence from boring beach reads. What’s the word? Pop Quiz! Define the following: “architorture.” If you said, “A Hamptons house tour”, “any McMansion”, or “the futile practice of trying to satisfy the neurotic fantasies of the nouveau-riche,” you’re correct! True Hamptonites seem to have a language all their own, and Miles Jaffe has captured it in The Hamptons Dictionary (Complete Fabrications Ltd.; $19.95), a reference book for East Enders and their ilk. Entries like “cidiot” (“a person who does not know how to behave when removed from their natural urban environment”) and “yachtzi” (“a smugly superior … boat owner who can only be shut up by the appearance of an … even more expensive boat ”) will bring a knowing smile to the face of any longtime resident, “blue chippers” and “modelists” included.
