Krátky popis
'An enchanting story about love, loss and the power of language'
Elizabeth Macneal, author of The Doll Factory Sometimes you have to
start with what's lost to truly find yourself... Motherless and
irrepressibly curious, Esme spends her childhood at her father's
feet as he and his team gather words for the very first Oxford
English Dictionary. One day, she sees a slip of paper containing a
forgotten word flutter to the floor unclaimed.And so Esme begins to
collect words for another dictionary in secret: The Dictionary of
Lost Words. But to do so she must journey into a world on the cusp
of change as the Great War looms and women fight for the vote. Can
the power of lost words from the past finally help her make sense
of her future?Readers love The Dictionary of Lost Words:'If you
only read one book this year, let it be this one!' 'If you're a fan
of The Binding and The Betrayals you will surely love this''A
glorious combination of words, growing up, friendship, love,
feminism and so much more''The best love letter to words and
language''This book broke my heart ...I highly recommend it to any
historical fiction fans ... it's one I will be reading again'
