да, меня тоже немножко позабавило в "Политике" (shameless plug: спрашивайте в книжных магазинах Москвы) Тёрлвелл издеваецца так:
... But who is Brancusi? Brancusi was a sculptor at the start of the twentieth century. He was Romanian, but he lived in Paris. In Romanian, Brancusi's name is pronounced 'Brunkoosh'. But I don't think that matters. Calling him 'Brunkoosh' is quite pretentious. In this book, you can stick to 'Brankoozy'.
