Nick Hornby, Sunday Times 'This story about a battle over language and defeat 'in the language wars' is also a victory for eloquent writing, crafty and cunning in its apparent simplicity.' Hermione Lee, Guardian 'Early as it is to risk a judgment, it is hard to believe that this year will produce many books as memorable or moving as this.' Roy Foster, The Times
