On our seats at the Celebration of Reading Author Panel were cards with questions. Mine was: What was the last book that made you cry? I shared a podcast episode about this in 2021, nominating #TheDictionaryOfLostWords. 📖😢 #books #podcasts #tearjerkers www.tallandtrueshortreads.com/the-last-boo...

Words,Wisdom & Women - #ThedictionaryofLostWords documents the importance of language especially around women’s health and the important role women played compiling the Oxford English Dictionary. “Mothers have a vocabulary all their own..” Thanks Pip Williams for Esme. #words

Missing Vocabulary. My #bookreview for #TheDictionaryofLostWords by Pip Williams on my #bookblog now. A fascinating, #biographical, novel is one I read for the #BeattheBacklist and #histficreadingchallenge reading challenges.

Really making me think of the power of words and how it shapes our world, and who has determined and shaped our languages, communication and therefore our perception and our worlds…what words have been lost along the way, shifted and evolved…

Thank you to my wonderful aunt of this gift of an #audiobook, can’t wait to dive in! #thedictionaryoflostwords #pipwilliams #audible #iread #booksky #booklover

An historical novel woven around and through the decades-long compiling of the Oxford English Dictionary. Though Williams writes powerfully on the silencing of women, Esme’s story—a conduit for social commentary—is perhaps too beholden to facts to truly dazzle as fiction. #TheDictionaryofLostWords

#TheDictionaryOfLostWords ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Brilliant, captivating, feminist grounded, intimate, nuanced, resonant, unforgettable.

Happy I finished TDOLW quick now I get to #Reread #TheWiseMansFear (even though I probably won’t finish till December)

Esme grows up as her father works on the Oxford English Dictionary. She loves words & learning but notices words that pertain to women are not being included in the early 1900’s dictionary. She collects those words so they are not lost. #thedictionaryoflostwords #booksky

🎧The Dictionary of Lost Words
- Pip Williams ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I will admit, this one crept up on me. After reading that blurb, I didn’t expect it to go where it took me or how much it pulled me in.
