Booked For Lunch
Fourth Monday of each month at noon - Next Meeting: April 28
In a starred review, the Library Journal calls The Dictionary of Lost Words by Pip Williams, “Enchanting, sorrowful, and wonderfully written, the book is a one-of-a-kind celebration of language and its importance in our lives. A must-have.”
Set during the height of the women’s suffrage movement and with the Great War looming, The Dictionary of Lost Words reveals a lost narrative, hidden between the lines of a history written by men. Inspired by actual events, author Pip Williams has delved into the archives of the Oxford English Dictionary to tell this highly original story. The Dictionary of Lost Words is a delightful, lyrical, and deeply thought-provoking celebration of words and the power of language to shape the world.
Regular and large-print copies are available now at the adult circulation desk. Digital editions are available for download using Libby. Join the discussion in person or online via Zoom, on Monday, April 28 at noon. Need the Zoom link? Register using our calendar or by email at RBrzozowski@cwmars.org.
