Review # 1 was written on 2011-05-23 00:00:00 Robin Bennett An absolutely brilliant collection of essays on literacy and education. Solway teaches you to read all over again. Logophiliacs beware! This book is full of words.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-11-09 00:00:00 Eduard Hiti The butler did it. Then the butler explained it to the butler's students, in a language most of the students did not understand. Some of them learned to mimic that language; some of them gradually learned from mimicry to have some understanding--perhaps, or perhaps only a misrecognition of understanding. Those became the next generation of butlers.
