Clare’s Reviews > The Dictionary of Lost Words > Status Update

I think the author's premise is interesting and worth exploring, but so far this is pretty dull. Protagonist thinks words are important, protagonist notices edwardian society is sexist and classist...that's it so far. Still waiting for the "delightful" and "lyrical" parts from the book's official description. Also the complete lack of visual description is driving me nuts; there's no sense of time or place.
