I’ve never seen anyone talk about this book. Read it in the Dutch translation as a teen and it stuck with me for years. Never read the English, so can’t vouch for the original but wacky is a good word
It dives into linguistic theory, extremely meta concepts about words and reading and language and it absolutely blew my mind back then. Maybe I should revisit to see what it’s like now
