jomat 's review for:

The Bookbinder by Pip Williams
4.0

Not actually a sequel but a link to Dictionary of Lost Words, this novel is set around the first world war. Twin sisters destined to work in the bindery section - one is autistic and the other takes on the responsibility of looking after her once their mother has died. The story shows the strengths in both of them, the horrors of war and the everlasting effects it has on people who survived.
