Native Tongue by Suzette Haden Elgin

5.0

I had never heard of this book or author until I came across the language Láadan in Alex Bellos’ The Language Lover’s Puzzle Book, and I’m so glad his very short description of it was sufficient to make me order this trilogy immediately. It had been quite a while since the last time I picked up a book that I couldn’t put down!
