Words about Words: A Lexicographer’s List, Éilís Murphy

Words about Words playfully explores the language of lexicography, using 26 captivating collages to bring to life esoteric terms, from abecedarian to zeugma.

Each book is unique by virtue of hand-painted paste paper, which gives the cover the chalky feel of a painted canvas. This paper decoration technique has been used by bookbinders since the middle ages.
