商品簡介
An obsessive word loverA's account of reading the Oxford English Dictionary cover to cover.
A"IA'm reading the OED so you donA't have to. If you are interested in vocabulary that is both spectacularly useful and beautifully useless, read on...A"
So reports Ammon Shea, the tireless, word-obsessed, and more than slightly masochistic author of Reading the OED. The word loverA's Mount Everest, the OED has enthralled logophiles since its initial publication 80 years ago. Weighing in at 137 pounds, it is the dictionary to end all dictionaries.
In 26 chapters filled with sharp wit, sheer delight, and a documentarianA's keen eye, Shea shares his year inside the OED, delivering a hair-pulling, eye-crossing account of reading every word, and revealing the most obscure, hilarious, and wonderful gems he discovers along the way.
