desertcart.com: The Bookbinder: A Novel: 9780593600467: Williams, Pip: Books

Review: Excellent read - I was initially drawn to this book because I find bookbinding interesting and tend to enjoy books about books. What I got instead was an incredible portrait of women in and from Oxford during World War I. The unique perspective made this horrific period of history more palatable though no less awful. An excellent character driven novel, The Bookbinder is a work of art. It will appeal to many people for a wide range of reasons. As a teacher, I have had students hungry for knowledge and a chance at a better life like Peg as well as many “unique “ learners like Maude. As a woman, I appreciated the tangible reminder of how short our history of having a voice and a vote has been, especially for the working class. The love story between Peg and Bastian is beautiful and heartbreaking. The inexpressible grief of Lotte and others was painfully real. The portrayal of the influenza pandemic is especially poignant for those of us who experienced Covid 19. Most of all, this is a book about persistence and resilience and hope. Too often we let our deficiencies, losses, and failures define us. Maude, Tilda, Bastian, and Peg remind us that they don’t. I read around 40 books a year and about 2/3 - 3/4 are decently good. I’ve only read two this year that will stay with me and stay on my list of recommendations. The Bookbinder is one of them.
Review: Great story - lol loved the book. Good story and good writing.
