Iza riječi

Iza riječi

Nives Opačić

A direct, enjoyable and humorous read, and all of this is primarily thanks to the magic of storytelling - Nives Opačić tells a thousand and one stories about every word.

The book, which tells stories about words and their context in about ninety short stories, is just like its author - rounded and straightforward, witty and engaging, imbued with life experience - childlike curiosity, distinctly sociolinguistically oriented and etymologically aware, professionally 'well-versed' and humanly consistent.
