The main problem with this book is that it wasn't as interesting as I though it would be. I feel like Sacks could have done a lot with creating a cohesive flow, but it would have worked better as a serial series in a newspaper (which is how it originally started). While some of the facts were interesting, I felt like the story of the alphabet for each letter was basically repeated over and over, and so information- for example, I think he informed us what the unical style was about 20 times- was unecessarily repeated, and long, info heavy box sections just interrupted the flow of the text.
Very interesting! Traces the history of each letter of the alphabet through time. Loved it!
