Can’t say that I’ve ever pondered on the exact process a dictionary comes about (much less the Oxford English Dictionary-although never specifically named, novel was based in Oxford). Such an exacting,laborious task. Not surprisingly this read has a slow start. Picks up nicely though. Set in the 1930-40s with class distinctions very present. Interesting angle on the Sufferjet movement
