The book is a book of auditory bliss; as you read you find yourself engaging in the sounds of the words, along with the words themselves. Rawlings' work flourishes from its creative engagement of one's sense of sound; you haven't read the book until you read it and hear it at once. Even in the reading of it, I felt drawn to the look and sound of the words; it forced me to recognize the beauty of a word, both of its own merit (even the word "lepidopterist" has a beautiful look to it) and with the understanding of its meaning, which came secondary to the initial reading.
