Helpful Score: 1
This book will keep you reading long after dinner should be made, long after you should be asleep, long after your bath water has turned cold. A beautiful story lovingly told about sisters in Oxford during WWI, who are bookbinders. For the first time in quite a while, I was sorry to finish the last page. Well written.
As with Pip Williams prior book The Dictionary of Lost Words, The Bookbinder resonates with me on so many levels. It is about strong women, family, friendship, community, and, of course, books. Many of these conversations â resources for special needs, equitable access to education, refugees â still continue today. The conversation of the role of women, friends, and family are universal and timeless. I look forward to seeing what Pip Williams writes next.
