Βαβέλ: Ο γύρος του κόσμου σε 20 γλώσσες by Gaston DorrenMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
The premise of this book is very interesting.
The author delves deep into the extraordinary stories of these diverse lingua francas, tracing their politics origins, and their sometimes bloody rise to greatness.
Combining linguistics and cultural history, Babel takes us on an intriguing tour of the world.
I found the book to be easy to understand and personally I enjoyed some chapters more than others as I found them more engaging.
Babel was very enjoyable and informative and a good starting point if you want to delve more into linguistics.
