Communico short description
The title selected for June 4 is "Dictionary of Lost Words" by Pip Williams.
Motherless Esme spends her childhood in the Scriptorium, the garden shed in the back of the house where her father works for the Scots-born lexicographer James Murray and his monk-like team, who are collecting words for the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. Some slips of paper carrying words are misplaced or discarded, and it is these “lost” words that Esme is determined to rescue from certain oblivion.
The daytime book discussion group at Beaumont meets two Tuesday mornings a month, except around the holidays.
