Fin. J Ross- ‘Billings Better Bookstore and Brasserie’ – a read from the author.
Fin. J Ross loves unusual words and language so this is a great fun book I think for Young Adult to adult. We can all do with learning a new word each day and there are some beauties in this text which have sadly fallen into disuse!
Bring back ‘ Hamshackled‘ ,’Flexanimous‘ and maybe ‘Effodient‘!
These and many more can be found at the start of each chapter as we follow the fortunes of Fedelia Knight, an orphaned girl in 18 century Melbourne who had a love of words and reading.
